Summary
Existing law establishes a procedure for creating a limited conservatorship for a person with developmental disabilities. Under existing law, that procedure requires, among other things, that a court investigator conduct interviews of a proposed conservatee and others, review allegations in the petition to create the conservatorship, determine whether the proposed conservatee is incapable of completing an affidavit of voter registration, and report the results of the investigation to the court. This bill would provide that these requirements do not apply to a procedure to establish a limited conservatorship for a person with developmental disabilities when the proposed conservator is a parent of the proposed conservatee. Existing law requires that within 30 days after the filing of a petition for limited conservatorship of a person with developmental disabilities, the proposed limited conservatee, with his or her consent, be assessed at a regional center. Existing law requires the regional center to submit a written report of its findings and recommendations resulting from that assessment to the court. This bill would instead authorize, rather than require, the proposed limited conservatee, with his or her consent, to be assessed at a regional center for those purposes. The bill would require the regional center, with the consent of the proposed limited conservatee, to submit a written report containing findings and recommendations to the court without an assessment of the proposed conservatee if the proposed conservatee has been a client of the regional center for a period of time sufficient for the center to provide those findings and recommendations without the need for an additional assessment, and if the proposed conservator is a parent of the proposed conservatee.
