Description
SUBSTITUTE GUARDIAN PACKET. The packet of forms is for filing to substitute a deceased, ill, aging, or inactive guardian in the Surrogate’s Court. It includes detailed instructions and required documents such as a verified complaint, certification of criminal and civil judgment history, order fixing hearing date, proposed order appointing substitute guardians, and proof of service. Applicants must apply for the same type of guardianship that was in place, provide labeled exhibits, and pay a $175 filing fee. The process involves serving documents to living guardians, proposed co-guardians, and next of kin, filing proof of service, confirming hearing details, and qualifying as a guardian with a $50 fee within 14 days of the hearing. The court may require background checks and training for proposed guardians. Annual reporting requirements apply if co-guardians are added. www.FormsWorkflow.com
