GUARDIANSHIP OF DEANNA DYE

CASE NUMBER: 25PG-0032820 Disclosure Re: guardianship cases involving Shasta County Health and Human Services Agency-Judge Wood discloses that her step-daughter, Erinn Watts, is the Administrative Branch Director of the Health and Human Services Agency. In that position, Judge Wood’s step-daughter does not have any involvement in the investigation, management, prosecution or defense of guardianship cases. However, the Court makes this disclosure of an employment relationship between an investigating agency and the Court’s first degree relative as required by California Code of Judicial Ethics.

This matter is on calendar for further proceedings on a Petition for Termination of Guardianship filed by the father, Thomas Dye. A new Notice of Hearing has been filed and served for today’s date, however service was untimely. The proof of service filed on May 12, 2026, indicates that the parties were served only 6 days before the hearing. There is no valid proof of service of the Notice of Hearing and Petition on file for the Guardian, mother, maternal grandfather, paternal grandfather, or siblings. Insufficient information has been provided to permit the Court to dispense with notice to these parties. All parties may be served by mail at least 15 days before the hearing. Prob. Code § 1460.

The Court has reviewed the Court Investigator’s report filed on May 7, 2026, which recommends granting the Petition. The matter is continued to Monday, June 29, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. in Department 42 for further proceedings on the Petition for Termination of Guardianship. A new Notice of Hearing is required to be filed and served for the continued hearing date, along with a copy of the Petition, on the parties identified above. No appearance is necessary on today’s calendar.
