Protection Of Individuals Subject To A Fiduciary

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.
