a) is significantly reduced permanently or in a temporarily recurring manner, or


b) is lost permanently and completely.


(3) If the court does not deprive an adult of suffrage, then the person placed under custodianship shall exercise suffrage personally and shall have the power to independently make valid juridical acts in the context of exercising these rights.


(4) Persons entitled to bring an action for the termination of placement under custodianship may request that the deprivation of suffrage of the adult placed under custodianship be terminated, even if paragraph (1) does not apply.
