A doctor in Tom Girardi‘s conservatorship case says he’s suffering from Alzheimer’s … and his dementia impairs his ability to understand court hearings.
In documents obtained by TMZ, Tom’s doctor says dementia and late-onset Alzheimer’s is affecting Tom’s memory, concentration, recall, recognition, communication, logic and understanding.
He’s also dealing with emotional distress because of the dementia — his doctor says Tom’s feeling angry, anxious, fearful, panicked and helpless.
As we’ve reported … ‘RHOBH’ star Erika Jayne’s estranged husband is already dealing with a bunch of legal issues, including a judge freezing certain assets, multiple lawsuits and a divorce.
A judge wants prosecutors to look into allegations Tom misappropriated at least $2 million in client money intended to compensate the families of victims of Lion Air’s Boeing 737 Max crash.
As for the lawsuits he’s facing … one is from Robert Keese, the other named partner in Tom’s law firm, who claims Tom owes him around $506,000. Tom and Erika are also being sued for allegedly filing a sham divorce to hide money from creditors.
