Judge refuses to halt wardship inquiry for intellectually disabled man pending legal challenge
The “best interests” of an intellectually disabled man require that an inquiry into whether he should be made a ward of court be held before his challenge to a ban on his civil legal marriage and the constitutionality of the court’s wardship jurisdiction, the president of the High Court has ruled.
The man, aged in his forties, objects to wardship and the court order which prevented his civil legal marriage last June.
