AB 1727 (2007) c. 553

Some bill research does not include the Governor's file because at the time we researched the bill, the sitting Governor had not released his chaptered bill file. If the Governor's file is not included with this particular research, please contact our office (1-530-666-1917 or quote@legintent.com) and we will be happy to provide this file at no charge if it is available. Please Note: Governor files did not exist prior to 1943.

AB 1727, c. 553:  Conservators and guardians. (1) Makes a dependent adults caregiver a disqualified beneficiary of a donative transfer (testamentary gift) from the dependent adult only if the instrument creating or modifying the gift is dated after the caregiving commenced; (2) Prohibits the court from granting a conservatorship unless the court makes an express finding that a conservatorship is the least restrictive alternative needed for the protection of the conservatee; (3) Creates new requirements on courts when guardianships and conservatorships are transferred from other jurisdictions; (4) Authorizes a county's public guardian or adult protective services to petition the court for orders in connection with an investigation of whether appointment of the public guardian would be appropriate, including orders for release of confidential medical and financial information about the proposed conservatee; and (5) Makes other technical and clarifying amendments to the Omnibus Conservatorship and Guardianship Reform Act of 2006 to ensure the proper implementation of the Act.
