GUARDIANSHIP OF ZELEYANA RA Y SIMS

CASE NUMBER: 24PG-0032442 This matter is on calendar for further proceedings on an Order to Show Cause Re: Termination of Guardianship. This matter is also on calendar for further proceedings on a Petition for Appointment of Successor Guardian of the Person. The Petition was filed by the minor’s cousin, Elizabeth Houck. Letters of Temporary Guardianship issued on March 10, 2026, and are set to expire today unless further extended. The current Guardian is Shannon Ray.

A new Notice of Hearing has not been filed for today’s date. There is no proof of service of the Notice of Hearing and Petition for the mother, guardian/maternal grandmother, or siblings and insufficient information has been provided to permit the Court to dispense with notice. The guardian/maternal grandmother and mother must be personally served in order to move forward on the Petition. Prob. Code § 1511(b). All other parties may be served by mail. Prob. Code § 1511(c). For siblings under 12 years of age, service can be on the parent or guardian with whom the sibling resides. Prob. Code § 1460.1. Alternatively, the above parties can sign a consent and waiver of notice (GC-211, section 4), in lieu of being served.

The Court has reviewed the Court Investigator’s report filed on April 2, 2026, which recommends granting the Petition. The Court will inquire whether the child is or may be an Indian child. If Petitioner has reason to know that the child is an Indian child, they must make further inquiry to learn about the child’s Indian heritage.

This matter is continued to Monday, August 10, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. in Department 42 for further proceedings on the Order to Show Cause Re: Termination of Guardianship and Petition. The Temporary Guardianship is ORDERED to remain in effect until the continued hearing date. Petitioner is required to 7

file and serve a new Notice of Hearing for the continued hearing date, along with a copy of the Petition, on the parties identified above. In the alternative, if Petitioner cannot serve the parties identified, the Court will require a declaration explaining in detail all efforts of Petitioner to locate and serve them and why they cannot be served, to permit the Court to dispense with notice. Warning: Failure to properly effect service or provide adequate basis to dispense with service as to the necessary parties will result in denial of the Petition. Notice is preserved. No appearance is necessary on today’s calendar.
