Cher and son Elijah Blue Allman agree to privately try to reconcile their bitter feud over her petition to be named his conservator

Cher and her recovering drug addict son Elijah Blue Allman are quietly trying to kiss and make up to end their bitter feud over her demands that he submit to a conservatorship controlled by his superstar mother.

The two were scheduled to appear June 11 at a Los Angeles court where the singer was to ask to be appointed his conservator – a move vehemently opposed by Elijah, 47.

But new court documents obtained by DailyMail.com reveal that mother and son met in a 'private mediation' session with a retired judge earlier this month.

The pair 'agreed to pause all legal proceedings and related activities…to allow the parties to continue to work together together to privately and confidentially resolve this matter.'

Cher, 77, and son Elijah Blue Allman, 47, have been in a legal battle after the pop star petitioned to be appointed her recovering drug addict son's conservator

Cher, 77 and Elijah postponed the June 11 hearing three months to September 13 'to continue to work toward private resolution.'

Last month, Elijah – son of the late rocker, Gregg Allman – blasted his mom, calling her 'misguided' and 'unfit' to control a conservatorship.

'I have seen her suffer with depression in the past and I do not believe that she is capable of making appropriate decisions for my estate,' he said in court documents.

'I do not need a conservatorship. The only person who can save me from my demons is me – and I'm doing just that.'

Cher petitioned LA Superior Court last December to appoint her Elijah's temporary conservator, arguing that his past drug addiction, plus mental and physical health issues, make him unable to manage the $120,000 a year he gets from a trust fund set up for him by his father.

The singing legend, said she feared he would spend his $30,000 quarterly payouts on drugs, putting his life in jeopardy.

But at a hearing in January, Judge Jessica Uzcategui refused to appoint Cher as conservator, saying that the star's attorneys had not given Elijah enough notice of the court action and had refused to share confidential information with him about his case.

Still, the judge allowed the star to continue her pursuit of the conservatorship – despite the continuing resistance from Allman.

'I understand that a conservatorship is appropriate for a person who is substantially unable to manage his own financial resources of resist fraud or undue influence,' he said in legal papers.

'In the months since the petition was filed…I have paid my bills, instructed the trustee of the trust to pay other expenses, released new music on February 8 with my band Deadsy and I am in talks regarding other creative projects.

'I have also retained an accounting firm to assist me in paying my taxes and managing buy finances. I am and have been capable of managing my own financial resources and resisting fraud and undue influence. I do not need a conservatorship.

'Given that several months have passed since this matter has been filed and I've been able to manage my finances appropriately, it seems that the concerns raised...by the petitioner (Cher), even if true, do not rise to the level necessary to curtail my civil rights and liberty with a conservatorship.'

Cher had been arguing that Elijah's drug addiction makes him unable to manage his trust fund 

'I do not need a conservatorship. The only person who can save me from my demons is me – and I'm doing just that,' Allman wrote in legal papers.  He's pictured with wife Marieangela 'Queeny' King at a January court hearing

Allman fiercely contests his mother's claims that he's mentally ill and in jeopardy of falling back into the drugs that almost destroyed his life.

'My mother's petition raises dual concerns that I suffer from some mental illness and that I live hand-to-mouth using my trust distributions to buy drugs and place myself in mortal danger,' he said.

Cher, 77, has long had a contentious relationship both with Elijah and her daughter-in-law Marieangela (pictured together in 2018)

'I have struggled with addiction but I am not mentally ill. The absence of evidence of the concerns (related to 'cyclical' mental illness addiction) raised in the petition over the last four months are evidence that IU have control over my faculties and that I am not mentally ill.

'I know that my mother's objectives are not nefarious….I know that my mother's actions are meant to help me – but I do not need this help.

'My mother seems to believe that controlling these quarterly trust distributions will prevent me from engaging in self-destructive behavior. She is misguided.

'In the event that I am inclined to engage in self-destructive behaviors, I do not need my trust distributions to do so; the world is full of addicts and mentally ill persons who do not have a trust distribution from which to draw. The only person who can save me from my demons bus me – and I'm doing just that.'

Under California law, a court appointing a conservator can give priority to whichever close relative it decides could do the best job.

And while Allman is opposed to any conservator, if the judge decides to appoint one, he believes priority should go to his wife, rock singer Marieangela 'Queeny' King – whom he was about to divorce last year till the two reconciled and decided to give their 11-year marriage another try.

'My wife is entitled to priority,' he says. 'My understanding therefore is that Cher is no longer entitled to priority.'

There is no love lost between King and her famous mother-in-law. Cher claims King has been a 'destructive presence' in his life, impeding his efforts to stay clean and sober.

Allman lived in Hollywood's famed Chateau Marmont Hotel for six months before he passed out and was sent to rehab 

Marieangela blasted Cher in a public statement, claiming the pop singer 'historically excluded' her from decisions involving Elijah's care

King in turn accuses Cher of trying to thwart her reconciliation with Elijah by kidnapping him and sending him to a rehab facility. Cher has denied that allegation.

'My mother and I have had a strained relationship for years,' Allman said in court documents. 'As an example, on October 17, 2023, my mother arranged for me to be brought to Mexico for what I was told was 'holistic alternative therapy.'

'Upon arrival in Mexico, I was told that I was not there for holistic/alternative treatment and, in fact, was not permitted to leave.

'It was my wife who retained counsel and negotiated my release from the facility in Mexico.

'While I wish to believe that my mother wants the best for me, I have personal knowledge that she does not manage her own finances. I therefore have grave concerns about this court permitting her to manage any of mine.'

Allman said he has 'no doubt' that if his mother were appointed conservator, she would 'delegate the responsibility' to her personal assistant Jennifer Ruiz and 'others under her control, persons with whom I have negative associations.'

He added, 'My mother is seventy-seven years old and will be seventy-eight when this matter is heard. I have seen her suffer with depression in the past and I do not believe that she is capable of making appropriate decisions for my estate.'

Also mother to son Chaz Bono, 54, from her first marriage to the late Sonny Bono, Cher has insisted that, as Elijah's mother, she is best suited to be his conservator and that she has received family support on the issue.

Referring to Elijah's on-again, off-again marriage to King, 'Their tumultuous relationship has been marked by a cycle of drug addiction and mental health crises,' she said in court filings.

Cher claimed King has not been 'supportive of Elijah's recovery and ... actively works to keep Elijah from getting clean and sober or receiving mental health treatment that he desperately needs.'

She cited Elijah's volatile relationship with King as a reason why King 'is not entitled to appointment as conservator of Elijah's estate'.

She said it 'would be unsafe for Elijah and his estate' to assign King any control of the conservatorship,' saying that 'it would result in the immediate loss or dissipation of Elijah's assets for self-destructive purposes.'

For King's part, she made a statement to DailyMail.com about the Mexican 'rehab' facility Allman refers to in his latest court filing.

She accused Cher of throwing Elijah 'into a lockdown facility' in Mexico, saying the Witches of Eastwick star had 'historically excluded' her from being involved in his treatment decisions.

'I have always been a champion for the sober community and for Elijah's sobriety,' King said

'I have full confidence in legitimate, ethically operated, HIPAA protected American medical establishments that offer long standing, time-tested treatment for those suffering from substance abuse or any number of mental health issues,

'What I am not OK with are establishments that exclude me (his wife) from being part of Elijah's treatment and hopeful recovery.

'I am not OK with pop-up, makeshift, unethical scam rehabs which take full advantage of families in desperate situations and seek to fraudulently exploit insurance companies for services not rendered.

'I am especially not OK with Elijah being coerced under false pretenses on or about October 17, 2023 into participating in an alternative medicine regimen and then being thrown into a lockdown facility in Mexico, sleeping behind a locked cage with six other individuals, under an imposed Mexican conservatorship.'

The statement, issued through her record company, said: 'It is not an exaggeration to say that Ms. King recently risked her own life to ensure her husband's safe return back to the U.S.'

It does not go into detail as to the circumstances of how King risked her life.

The statement went on to say: 'Any circulating rumors that insinuate that Ms. King has been anything other than an exemplary wife to Mr. Allman or is in any way complicit in impeding his recovery are patently false.'
