Guardianship of Jaylah Angelina Ventura Govea

Because of the need to relieve Ms. Dunst as Minor’s Counsel, and appoint new counsel so close to the May 5, 2026, hearing date, the Court will address the appointment of a replacement Minor’s Counsel and scheduling of the trial date only.

The Court will specially set the matter for an evidentiary hearing at a time and date convenient to the Court and the parties. All parties should also be prepared to identify a reasonable date for the exchange of witness lists and documents (if any) which he/she/they intend to submit for the Court’s consideration at the evidentiary hearing. Finally, all parties are hereby advised that strict compliance with local rules will be required. They should take special review Local Rules 6.2.F. which requires, among other things, that parties meet and confer for purposes of making reasonable efforts to informally resolve any controversies and to file Statements of Issues or Settlement prior to an evidentiary hearing.
