Causal Document & Date Filed : Petition for Appointment of Temporary Guardian or Conservator, 04/04/2018
The general conservatorship hearing is set for June 8, 2018. In the interim, petitioner wife seeks temporary conservatorship of her husband's person and estate. The proposed conservatee's son, Austin, concedes the need for conservatorship, but questions the wisdom of appointing petitioner as fiduciary on the estate.
The court investigation report sets out these positions and recommends appointment of petitioner on the temporary conservatorship petition, without prejudice to Austin and petitioner reaching some agreement as to the proper fiduciary on the general conservatorship estate. Neither petition seeks Probate Code 2591 powers, limiting proposed temporary conservator's estate authority to an alleged $5000 in personalty and $2000/mo. in pension income. Upon consent of proposed conservatee's counsel, grant petition. Appoint Karen Kittrell,
