The appointment of a conservator for a person with a disability does not automatically terminate the duty of the person with a disability to support such spouse or dependent minor children of the person with a disability. The court having jurisdiction over the person with a disability may establish the amount of financial support to which the spouse or dependent minor children are entitled.
