Traditionally, "unwell" monarchs, even if absolute, were dethroned for the safety and well-being of the realm. That could be done gently, with "best effort" legalities - such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regency_Acts#Regency_Bill_1789

Unfortunately, there seems to be no equivalent tradition for plutocrats.
