The Superior Court has jurisdiction of the protection of incapacitated or protected persons and their property in Guardianship/Conservatorship cases.
A Guardian might be appointed for an adult who is unable to make decisions or care for him or herself because of a mental or physical disability. The decisions a guardian can make for a ward may include housing, education, medical care, food, and clothing.
A Guardian of a child might be someone other than a parent who is appointed to make decisions for that child and have the same authority and responsibility as a parent to provide food, housing, medical care, education, and supervision.
A Conservator may be appointed for an adult who is unable to manage their money or property. The Conservator will protect and administer the person’s assets against theft or fraud.
A Conservator of a child might be a child’s parent or a financial institution that is appointed to manage or hold the money or property of a person under the age of 18 years.
