Legal Capacity
- Legal capacity laws determine:
- whether a person can make decisions for themselves and,
- when someone else will be required to make decisions for them
- A person is allowed to make decisions if they satisfy the legal criteria of “capacity” to do so
- These criteria are often cognitive in nature
- Being considered to be “capable” in law means a person has power to control their own decisions
