HB 4635 creates a new process for appointing temporary guardians for individuals who cannot make decisions for themselves (incapacitated persons), requiring immediate action to protect their welfare. Courts may appoint a temporary guardian for up to six months if specific conditions are met, such as following court rules for emergency orders or complying with existing petition requirements. During this period, the temporary guardian assumes care and custody, suspending the authority of any permanent guardian, and must report to the court. A permanent guardianship appointment must be scheduled within 28 days of the temporary appointment, streamlining the transition while ensuring timely oversight. This bill directly affects vulnerable individuals and their families navigating urgent guardianship needs.
