GUARDIAN COMMENTS AND COMPLAINTS
(A)
The following procedure will be followed for submitting and considering comments or
complaints regarding a guardian:
(1)
All complaints must be in writing and completed on the designated form (MC
Form 17.0F) located on the Court’s website and at the Court.
(2)
The form must be accompanied by the appropriate filing fee and will be time
stamped and docketed by the Court. The complaint will be given to the Court’s
Guardianship Social Worker to add to the guardianship database for monitoring.
(3)
Upon receipt of the complaint, the Guardianship Social Worker shall send a notice
to the complainant acknowledging receipt of the complaint and indicating that the
complaint is in the process of being reviewed.
(4)
Upon receipt of the complaint, the Guardianship Social Worker shall send a copy
of the complaint to the guardian with a notice indicating that the complaint is in the
process of being reviewed.
(5)
The complaint will be delivered promptly to the Guardianship Magistrate who will
develop a plan of action for the complaint within ten (10) days. Plans of action may
include any of the following:
(a) The matter may be set for hearing in which case, a hearing notice will be sent
to the complainant, the guardian, the ward and any attorney of record.
(b) The Court may order an investigation of the complaint, after which a written
response will be sent to the complainant and the guardian.
(c) The Court may determine that on its face, the complaint does not warrant
further action in which case, a written response will be sent to the complainant.
(6)
In all cases, the response of the Probate Court will be docketed and the complaint
and response maintained in the Court’s file. The complaint or comment is a public
document.
(7)
At the conclusion of the review process, the Guardianship Social Worker will
update the database to include the disposition of the complaint.

ward is not required to use the designated form nor will the ward incur a filing fee.
