HB 2348 Illinois House · 101st Regular Session

PROBATE-ADULT GUARDIANS

Summary
Amends the Probate Act of 1975. Provides that the court may issue an order that specifically grants the guardian the power to enforce the rights of the person with a disability to receive visitors, telephone calls, and personal mail. Provides that at a hearing, the court shall inquire, among other things, the recent history of the respondent's family care and visitation. Provides that the court shall, during the selection of the guardian, give due consideration to, among other things, any history of the proposed guardian having unreasonably isolated the respondent from any close family member who was a longstanding, frequent visitor or caregiver of the respondent. Provides that at the time of its initial hearing, the court may enter an order providing immediate visitation with the respondent by an adult child, spouse, grandchild, or sibling of the respondent who alleges that his or her visitation with the respondent is being unreasonably denied.
