Petition for Appointment of a Limited Conservator of the Person
CASE NUMBER: 26PC-0033279
This matter is on calendar for further proceedings on a Petition for Appointment of a Limited Conservator of the Person. Based on the declaration filed on May 7, 2026, the Court dispenses with notice to Jeannie Flora and Sean Bennett. The matter has been properly noticed. The Citation has been filed with proper proof of service. Counsel has been appointed for the Conservatee. No objections have been raised. The paperwork appears to be in order. The Capacity Declaration has been reviewed and is accepted by the Court. The report of the assessment from Far Northern Regional Center has been filed.
The Court Investigator’s report filed on April 20, 2026, indicates that the proposed Conservatee will attend the hearing. The Court Investigator recommends granting the Petition. The Court Investigator further notes that the Conservatee cannot communicate, with or without reasonable accommodations, a desire to participate in the voting process.
Absent an appearance and objection by Counsel for the proposed Conservatee, the Petition is GRANTED. The Court finds that the Conservatee cannot communicate, with or without reasonable accommodations, a desire to participate in the voting process and is therefore disqualified from voting. The clerk is directed to forward the Court’s order and voting determination to the Secretary of State and the county elections official in the format prescribed by the Secretary of State. A proposed Order was submitted and will be executed by the Court.
The matter is set for Monday, October 12, 2026, at 2:30 p.m. in Department 44 for confirmation of filing of the Conservatorship Care Plan and proof of service of the Notice of Conservatee’s rights. The matter is set for Monday, June 7, 2027, at 2:30 p.m. in Department 44 for Annual Review. An appearance is necessary on today’s calendar only if there is an objection by the Public Defender’s office.
