Who is an incapacitated person?

Posted on December 14, 2007 by Shannon Cavers

According to the Texas Probate Code, an incapacitated person includes:

a minor (e.g., a person under the age of 18);

an adult individual who, because of a physical or mental condition, is substantially unable to provide food, clothing, or shelter for himself or herself, to care for the individual's own physical health, or to manage the individual's own financial affairs; or

a person who must have a guardian appointed to receive funds due the person from any governmental source.
