According to new court documents, Elijah is once again objecting to his mother’s attempts to be appointed conservator of his estate, stating that her reasons are “misguided.”

Elijah stated in the filing that he does not need the court’s protection, and if the need for protection ever arose, his mother would not be the appropriate conservator as he is a “married” man, making Cher “unfit to serve.”

The 47-year-old then explained how he has been able to manage his finances and career by himself since his mother filed the petition in December last year. Elijah noted that he has had his bills paid, retained an accounting firm to help pay his taxes, and released new music with his band, Deadsy.

“I am and have been capable of managing my own financial resources and resisting fraud and undue influence. I do not need a conservatorship,” Elijah said.

He added, “Given that several months have passed since this matter has been filed and I’ve been able to manage my finances appropriately, it seems that the concerns raised in the pleadings filed by [Cher],  even  if  true,  do  not  rise  to  the  level  necessary  to curtail my civil rights and liberty with a conservatorship.”

In the court filing, Elijah went on to talk about his mother’s worries regarding his mental health and drug addiction.

Cher had, in a previous filing, claimed that Elijah was unable to care for himself due to his mental health issues. She also alleged that her son would “immediately” spend all his money on drugs if allowed to continue without a conservator.

Addressing his mother’s concerns, Elijah stated, “My mother’s petition raises dual concerns that I suffer from some mental illness and that I live hand-to-mouth using my trust distributions to buy drugs and place myself in mortal danger.”

He added, “As I have mentioned in previous pleadings, I have struggled with addiction, but I am not mentally ill. The absence of evidence of the concerns (related to ‘cyclical’ mental illness addiction) raised in the petition over the last four months [is] evidence that I have control over my faculties and that I am not mentally ill.”

Elijah Blue Allman Says Cher Is ‘Misguided’

Cher’s son noted in the court filing that his mother’s intentions were not “nefarious” and that she is too wealthy to have any interest in the “comparatively small sums” he receives from his late father, Greg Allman’s trust. However, he called the “Believe” singer “misguided.”

Elijah said, “I know that my mother’s actions are meant to help me but I do not need this help. My mother seems to believe that controlling these quarterly trust distributions will prevent me from engaging in self-destructive behaviors. She is misguided.”

He added, “In the event that I am inclined to engage in self-destructive behaviors, I do not need my trust distributions to do so; the world is full of addicts and mentally ill persons who do not have a trust distribution from which to draw. The only person who can save me from my demons is me – and I’m doing just that.”

In the court declaration, Elijah stated that if a person were ever to be appointed conservator of his estate, his wife, Marieangela King, would be prioritized over his mother, as there is “an order of preference under California law.”

When Cher initially filed for conservatorship in 2023, Elijah and King were in the process of getting divorced; however, a court dismissed their petition without prejudice.

“When my mother filed the petition in December of 2023, my wife and I were parties to a dissolution of marriage action. That action has since been dismissed, and my wife and I have reconciled,” Elijah said. 

He added, “My understanding, therefore, is that CHER is no longer entitled to priority.”

Elijah further wrote in the court declaration that he and his mother have a strained relationship. He cited an example of their strained relationship, writing that on  October 17, 2023, she made plans for him to go to Mexico for “holistic alternative therapy.” However, on getting there, he was faced with a different reality.

According to Elijah, there was no “holistic/alternative treatment,” and he was “not permitted to leave.” It was his wife, King, who retained legal counsel and negotiated his release from the facility in Mexico.

He went on to claim that his mother is “unfit” to be his conservator because she allegedly doesn’t manage her own finances.

“While I wish to believe that my mother wants the best for me, I have personal knowledge that she does not manage her own finances. I, therefore, have grave concerns about this court permitting her to manage any of mine,” Elijah claimed.

Elijah alleged that his mother’s personal assistant, “with whom he has negative associations,” manages her finances. He worries she would be in charge of his estate if his mother, Cher, were ever appointed conservator.

He added, “Further, my mother is seventy-seven years old and will be seventy-eight when this matter is heard. I have seen her suffer with depression in the past and I do not believe that she is capable of making appropriate decisions for my estate.”
