(7/1//21) CONSERVATORSHIPS 8.114 Appointment of Temporary Conservator A. If a Temporary Conservatorship is needed, a Petition for Appointment of a Temporary Conservator must be filed concurrently with, or subsequent to, the filing of a petition for appointment of a general conservator. Notice of an ex parte application is required to be given pursuant to Prob. Code § 2250(e). B. Prior to the date set for the ex parte hearing, all petitions and documents pertinent to the temporary application shall be reviewed by the Court Investigator and the Probate Examiner. The petition shall state the facts giving rise to the need for the temporary conservatorship. A petition will go to the judge only if it is procedurally correct and if the required notice has been given or dispensed with. Unless some degree of urgency is present, the Court ordinarily will not entertain an ex parte application for appointment of temporary conservator. If no opposition is presented and the matter appears appropriate, the Court may grant the petition. (7/1/13) 8.115 Appointment of General Conservator Petitions for appointment of general conservators are set on calendar for hearing at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday through Thursday. A. Ex parte hearings before the Judge are set as directed by the Court. (7/1/21) B. Subpoenas for long cause matters set out 30 days or more must be personally served on the applicable Court Investigator 30 days prior to the hearing along with the required $275.00 payable to the Stanislaus County Superior Court. The Court finds that 30 days is a reasonable period of time as required by statute. Petitions for appointment of a conservator shall be set for hearing at least forty-five (45) days after the date of filing. Although only a fifteen (15) day notice is required by the Probate Code, the additional time is necessary to insure that the proceeding is not delayed because the Court Investigator did not have sufficient time to complete the investigation. (7/1/13, 7/1/21) 8.116 Investigation Fees re: Conservator When a petition requests appointment of a conservator of the person or estate, a conservatorship investigation fee must be paid to the clerk in addition to the regular filing fee. Counsel and parties are advised to contact the Clerk’s Office for the amount of the current investigation fee. If it appears that the payment of the fee would cause a hardship, the fee may be waived upon application to the Court. (7/1/99) 8.117 Conservator’s Handbook Each proposed conservator (including proposed temporary conservators) must purchase the Conservator’s Handbook from the Probate Division of the Clerk’s Office before the Court will consider the person’s petition for appointment. The Public Guardian, corporate fiduciaries, banks and other entities authorized to conduct the business of a trust company are exempt from this requirement. All other proposed conservators, including private professional conservators, must meet this requirement once. (7/1/13) 8.118 Proceedings for a Proposed Transaction Probate Code § 3100 et. seq. Before a petition for an order authorizing a proposed transaction can be granted, the Court must make several findings, including those listed in Probate Code § 3144, and specifically that one spouse lacks the legal capacity to complete the transaction and that the other spouse either has legal capacity or has a conservator. The petition and order shall include a request for those findings. In order for the Court to make a finding that a spouse lacks legal capacity, there must be presented with Petition a declaration from a doctor or medical practitioner that complies with Probate Code § 810, 811 and 812. The declaration must specifically state that the person lacks the capacity to make a decision or perform the specific act required to complete the transaction. (1/1/02) 8.119 Substituted Judgment – Special Needs Trust Probate Code § 2580 Any party filing a petition for substituted judgment must use due diligence to fully inform the Court of all relevant circumstances. The petitioning party must use due diligence to inform the Court of everything a reasonable person in the conservatee’s position would have wanted to know before deciding whether or not a proposed action should be taken. The Court may appoint counsel for the conservatee. If the matter is contested, the Court may also order the Court Investigator to investigate and report to the Court. If the Court grants a petition for the exercise of substituted judgment, the order after hearing shall contain the findings required by Probate Code § 2582. If a trust is established pursuant to the substituted judgment statutes for a conservatee, the Court will require annual accountings of all trust assets and the trust shall remain under the jurisdiction of the Probate Court. (7/1/99, 7/1/21) GUARDIANSHIPS AND CONSERVATORSHIPS 8.120 Independent Powers The Court may, on the petition of the conservator or guardian, either at the time of appointment or later, grant additional independent powers to the conservator or guardian as authorized by Probate Code §§ 2590 and 2591. Additional independent powers are not lightly granted. The petition must state for each Probate Code § 2591 power requested, the facts and reasons which justify the independent exercise of the power. Additionally, if the power to sell or encumber a conservatee’s present or former personal residence is requested, the information required under Probate Code § 2540(b) must be included in the petition by way of a declaration the first time the conservator seeks authority to encumber, list or sell the conservatee’s present or former personal residence. The Court will grant only those independent powers necessary or proper under the specific circumstances of each case. Any powers so granted must be set forth at length in the order and in the letters of conservatorship. Where the power is granted to sell real property (thereby eliminating the need to publish notice of sale), the Court requires the sale to be confirmed by the Court. (7/1/99) 8.121 (RESERVED FOR FUTURE USE) (8.121 Repealed 7/1/21) 8.122 (RESERVED FOR FUTURE USE) (8.122 Repealed 7/1/21) 8.123 Inventory and Appraisement An inventory and appraisal of the estate, as of the day of appointment, shall be filed by the guardian/conservator with the Clerk of the Court within ninety (90) days after the appointment unless the Court has granted a petition for further time for filing (Prob. Code § 2610). (1/1/04, 7/1/21) 8.124 (RESERVED FOR FUTURE USE) (8.124 Repealed 7/1/21) 8.125 Accounts – Matter to Be Included All accounts must include the information required by Prob. Code §§2620 and 1060 et. seq. Market values for assets without a ready market shown on the schedule of estimated market values required pursuant to Prob. Code § 1063(a) should not reflect changes from carry value unless the method of evaluation is fully explained. If there is no reasonable method of valuation that complies with Prob. Code § 1063(a), but there has been a significant event that affects the value of the asset, such as a flood or other damage, the event should be disclosed in footnote to the schedule. Where there are multiple wards joined in a single guardianship proceeding an account shall reflect a separate accounting for each of the respective wards. A copy of the bank statements which include the ending date of the accounting period for each bank account, mutual fund account, brokerage account or other investment account shall be attached to every accounting filed. Final accounts for deceased wards or conservatees shall include separate accounts for transactions before the date of death and transactions after the date of death in accordance with Prob. Code § 2620. If the distribution upon termination of guardianship or conservatorship of the estate is to be made to a fiduciary appointed in another Court action, such as a probate estate, a certified copy of the Letters of Appointment shall be filed with the account. If distribution is to be made pursuant to Prob. Code § 13100, the affidavit or declaration required therein shall be filed with the report. (1/1/08, 7/1/21) 8.126 Report by Court Investigator The Court Investigator shall file a report with the Court in respect to each accounting filed unless the conservatee is deceased. In addition to those requirements set forth in Prob. Code §§ 1513, 1826, 1894, 1951 and 2684, the Investigator shall review the account to ascertain that it is in compliance with Prob. Code § 1060 et. seq. and whether the disbursements are appropriate. (1/1/08, 7/1/21) 8.127 Dispense with Account – When Permitted A. The Court will consider dispensing with accounts so long as the estate of the ward or conservatee meet the requirements of Prob. Code § 2628. In certain circumstances, the Court may approve an order dispensing with accounts on an ex parte basis. In order to avoid additional expense to the estate, a party may make such an application using optional Local Form PR-002 “Ex parte Petition to Dispense with Accounts and Orders Thereon”. This form is available on the Court’s website at https://www.stanislaus.courts.ca.gov/. (Click on the “Divisions” tab, then choose “Probate” from the drop-down menu and click on “Probate Forms” in the “Related Links” section.) Final Accounts of guardianship estates will not ordinarily be waived unless all funds are in a blocked account. Final accounts will not be waived in guardianship or conservatorship estates where a bond has not been posted. B. In the instance of funds being placed in a blocked account, the Court may dispense with accounts upon verification from the bank that the account is blocked.
