Shelby County Probate Court Judge Kathleen Gomes said she was disturbed that such an agreement was ever reached. Gomes explained she had never seen in her 43-year career a conservatorship agreement reached with someone who was not disabled.The agreement, which was reached in 2004, allowed Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy to control Oher’s finances. Oher signed the agreement when he was 18 and living with the couple as he was being recruited by colleges.
Oher has asked that the Tuohys provide a financial accounting of money that may have come to them as part of the agreement, claiming they used his name, image and likeness to enrich themselves and lied to him that the agreement meant the Tuohys were adopting him.If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
