After several months of legal proceedings a decision was made to place actor Peter Falk under a conservatorship on Monday.
The 81-year-old star suffers from advanced dementia and Falk's wife Shera will remain in control of his personal care and affairs, the Associated Press reports.
Dr. Stephen Read testified during the conservatorship trial on Monday that the actor slipped into dementia after a series of dental operations in 2007.
According to the AP, Falk's daughter Catherine petitioned in December to take over her father's affairs, but instead the court has granted her 30-minute visits every other month.
