RHOBH star Erika Girardi’s estranged husband Tom has temporary conservatorship implemented in his brother’s name in wake of recent medical emergency
Tom Girardi, the estranged husband of RHOBH star Erika Jayne, has been placed under a temporary conservatorship in wake of a medical emergency he suffered this past weekend.
Los Angeles court Judge Daniel Juarez ruled Monday that the Colorado native’s brother Robert was in charge of his estate and day-to-day care, as Tom’s lawyer Rudy Cosio said that he was unable to appear after the medical incident, US Weekly reported.
The temporary conservatorship, which extends thru March 30, was previously requested by Robert Girardi amid what he told the court was his brother’s deteriorating condition.

Tom Girardi has ‘deteriorated to the point where he cannot care for himself without assistance,’ Robert Girardi said in court docs obtained by People. ‘His short-term memory is severely compromised and, on information and belief, he is often not oriented as to date, time or place.
‘Left to his own devices, it is highly doubtful that Tom could manage most of the activities of daily living for any significant period of time without assistance.’
The case heads back to court for a March 15 hearing where Robert Girardi’s other asks will be taken into consideration, including the legal say whether he can place his brother into a facility that deals with problems such as dementia.
Last month, US Weekly cited court docs in reporting that his brother – who is also in the midst of a divorce and embezzlement case – ‘is incapable of realizing and understanding the repercussions of the bankruptcy filings pending against him and the Debtor.’

Erika Jayne filed for divorce last November after 21 years of marriage.
A class action firm, Edelson PC, in December said the divorce was orchestrated to ‘fraudulently protect Tom and Erika’s money’ as they’re ‘on the verge of financial collapse’ amid a suit accusing the pair of embezzling settlement funds for the families of the 2018 Lion Air Flight 610 crash, in which all 189 people onboard died.
