Tommy Lee Jones' motion to have his daughter, Victoria Jones, placed in a court-ordered conservatorship two years ago has received renewed attention after she was discovered dead on Jan. 1.
As reported by the San Francisco Chronicle on Jan. 2, Marin County Superior Court records in California show the 79-year-old "The Fugitive" actor successfully petitioned for the appointment of a conservator to oversee his daughter.
Tommy Lee Jones' petition, filed Aug. 7, 2023, was approved later that month, according to court records reviewed by USA TODAY on Jan. 14. On Dec. 13, 2023, Jones submitted an application to end the temporary conservatorship. Days later, the petition was granted.
Victoria Jones stepped out with father Tommy Lee Jones at the Tokyo International Film Festival on Oct. 25, 2017.
In a general conservatorship, a court can appoint a conservator for a person who is deemed unable to care for their own needs. Their "conservator has all powers and responsibilities, except ones found unnecessary," per the California courts website.
Victoria Jones' attorney in the conservatorship case declined to comment when reached by USA TODAY. USA TODAY has reached out to Tommy Lee's representatives for comment.

1 / 23See 'No Country For Old Men' star Tommy Lee Jones' career, iconic roles
Academy Award winning actor Tommy Lee Jones is honored on Nov. 30, 1994, in the Walk of Fame in front of the Mann's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.
Victoria Jones, 34, was found in the hallway of a San Francisco hotel in the early hours of Jan. 1. Paramedics responded just before 3 a.m. and declared her dead, the San Francisco Fire Department told USA TODAY on Jan. 2.
Victoria Jones, the younger child of Tommy Lee Jones and ex-wife Kimberlea Cloughley, followed in her father's footsteps earlier in life. Her first movie credit came in her dad's 2002 sequel "Men in Black II," in which she played a child whose memory was wiped.
She returned to the big screen in another small non-speaking role in 2005's Western "The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada," which Tommy Lee Jones directed and starred in. Other credits include an episode of teen drama "One Tree Hill" and a 2005 thriller titled "Sorry, Haters."
