Constellation Similarity Assertions
New York State Court of Chancery
Chapter 12 of the Laws of 1788 gave the Court of Chancery the responsibility for overseeing the well being and property of persons deemed idiots or lunatics and infant trustees (persons under the age of 21 whose person and estate are under the care of a trustee of guardian). This responsibility was extended to habitual drunkards by Chapter 109 of the Laws of 1821. The power of the Chancellor to appoint a committee or receiver for an idiot or lunatic is derived from English precedent. His power to appoint guardians for an infant was conferred by Chapter 106 of the Laws of 1815.
