The court appointed
conservator for a Sumner County woman, who was placed under court
control despite her protest, charged $437.50 to pick up shampoo and soap
for her ward, court records show.
Records in the case of Reba
Sherrill, who was placed under a conservatorship at the request of the
Vanderbilt University Medical Center, show the shopping trip, which took
2.5 hours, was just one of dozens of charges billed by Cathryn
Armistead, who was appointed as conservator over Reba Sherrill.
Overall Armistead has requested payment of $13,298.50 at the rate of $175 an hour.
Other
items on the 11-page payment request filed by Armistead in Davidson
Probate Court include $595 to attend an August hearing on the
conservatorship case and $297.50 to go to Regions Bank to check on a
bank balance and set up a new account for the conservatorship.
Sherrill has fought the conservatorship and eventually managed to have her brother replace Armistead as her conservator.
Other items on Armistead's bill include $577.50 to attend a recent hearing in the case and $560 to prepare for that hearing.
Armistead,
in response to questions, indicated she expects Sherrill's brother, who
was appointed as her conservator, to be responsible for paying her
bill.
