Protection Of Individuals Subject To A Fiduciary
Summary
If a court appoints as an emergency guardian or special conservator a professional person or public administrator, the act requires the court to also appoint a court visitor to interview the respondent and others and report to the court on the supported decision-making surrounding the respondent. Current law allows a court on its own motion or at the request of an interested person to conduct an emergency review of a fiduciary's actions. The act requires the judge to rule on the motion or request within 14 days. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
