Cher Gets Emotional in Court as Lawyer Says Singer Believes Son Elijah Blue Allman 'Would Not Be Alive Within the Year


Cher appeared in court remotely and was emotional as her lawyers discussed her son's drug addiction and mental health issues as a judge made a decision about the emergency temporary conservatorship she proposed. The judge ultimately ruled against it.

While Allman claimed in an objection to the motion for a temporary emergency conservatorship filed by Cher, which was obtained by PEOPLE, that he had been receiving treatment for addiction, the musician’s lawyers argued that she was more concerned about his history of mental illness. During the hearing, the music legend’s team revealed that Allman had been placed under several 5150 holds — a California legal code which allows a person with a mental illness to be involuntarily detained for a 72-hour psychiatric hospitalization — within the past year. The decision comes after Cher’s ex parte motion had previously been denied earlier in January due to Allman and his attorneys not having enough time to review the paperwork, which led to the appointment of Monday’s court date.
