Judge terminates Tuohy family conservatorship over former NFL player Michael Oher, depicted in 'The Blind Side'

A Tennessee judge signed an order Friday ending Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy's conservatorship over Michael Oher, a month after the former NFL player accused the couple of representing themselves publicly as his adoptive parents and using him for financial benefit.

Oher, whose life story was portrayed in the Oscar-winning movie "The Blind Side," filed a petition last month in Tennessee court claiming the Tuohys told him they were going to adopt him, but instead filed a conservatorship that kept millions of dollars from him.

Shelby County Probate Court Judge Kathleen Gomes issued an order to terminate the conservatorship, but the case has not yet been dismissed. Several outstanding issues still remain in Oher's lawsuit, including payments and accusations of false signatures.

CNN reached out to attorneys for Oher and the Tuohys.

Oher's petition to the court asks for an order for the Tuohys "to show cause for failure to meet their required duties to provide regular accountings or to act in the best interest of their ward, Michael J. Oher."

In their response to Oher's petition, the Tuohys said in court documents filed in Tennessee court they "vehemently deny" Oher's claims that they were "enriching themselves at the expense of their Ward [Oher]."

They say Oher never asked to terminate the conservatorship, either verbally or in writing, and "they have always acted in the best interest" of Oher.
