New case alert: Newcastle-Upon-Tyne City Council v TP (Final No. 3) [2016] EWCOP B4

25/4/2017

 
Having determined that the Patient, TP, lacked capacity as to residence, care and contact, the court now had to determine whether it would be in her best interests to return to live with the person (FW) who the court had already found to have been exploiting her.

The court was satisfied that if TP returned, as she wished, to FW her needs would not be met and her best interests would not be served.
