TENTATIVE RULING: The Petition is GRANTED, including fees as prayed. After a review of the matter, the Court finds the Conservator is acting in the best interest of the Conservatee. Thus, the matter is set for a Review – Biennial and for an Accounting in two years on January 14, 2028, at 8:30 a.m. in Dept. A. All accounting documents must be filed at least 30 days prior to the hearing. The Court Investigator shall prepare a biennial investigator report for the next hearing date.
