Wow!! It is pretty scary out there. It just shows the ugly side of the legal system. Cannot believe how the vulnerable are exploited by the ones who are supposed to take care of them. Guardianship is a very serious issue and yet the court, lawyers and judges treat it like a traffic ticket...

Thank you for your prompt response. In my opinion, the Judge should look into the CBI, FBI investigations of SM disappearance to decide the request for permanent Guardianship. IMO, BM, is a definite POI in the case and the petition should be declined.

Does one have to clear a criminal background check to be a guardian of an incapacitated adult?

Thank you for your help!!

Exactly!! This is huge. That is why I am very keen on knowing how the Judge is going to look at the Guardianship as it points towards a financial gain motive in her disappearance.

I have a question and you can give a general reply as an attorney. What constitutes best interest in case of Guardianship of a missing person? I am trying to understand the factors a Judge has to keep in mind before deciding on a case like this. This is a great platform to learn and having an...

Thank you ! Your input is greatly appreciated.

I too am waiting to see what happens. I do think the Judge will send this back to Colorado if not on grounds of residency than at least in the best interest of SM. I do sincerely hope she is found before the hearing.

I always thought once you move from your one state to another you have to update the address on your driving licence within a number of days. Does the rule differ in each state? Not only that, even if you change residence within the state you have to update your DL. MOO

To add to what you have already included, a Petition for PermanentGuardianship will have to be filed and heard in the Colorado Probate Court. The Indiana Probate Court, IMO might not have the jurisdiction to hear the petition as both BM and SM are Colorado residents. MOO

I guess it is for one property only. MOO

What is this? Is this true/ fake?

IMO B I will look at the Fotis Dulos case but I do have a quick question for you, Do you think the Judge will at least get in touch with the investigating agency for some inputs before deciding on the petition or will it simply go ahead as per the book and grant guardianship, if all other...

This is exactly what I have been thinking too. She has been missing for less than a month. The investigation is ongoing. How is the Judge going to declare her incapacitated? I know the immediate family members of SM can file an objection after they have been notified of the guardianship but I...

You are right! A lot of people will have to be notified and I am sure there will be someone from SM family who will file an objection to the guardianship petition. This is getting interesting!! MOO

I just watch the video of Tyson Draper showing the creek near SM house. There is a possibility she may have had an accident and fell into the creek and got swept away. The water does look very fast flowing and there are a lot of rocks, I hope they have looked into this possibility too. I have...

One of the reasons of LE being so tight-lipped is they want SM to be found. It is very critical for the case and I too think they have their POI under their watch 24/7. they are hoping for a slip, a hint of where she possibly could be. Could he be frequenting the spot just to make sure he has...

In my opinion, It is very likely something happened to Suzzanne on Friday or Saturday but she was reported missing on Sunday. We do not know much as the daughters were out of town and I am very curious to know if her daughters had texted or called her on Friday and Saturday. LE, of course, does...

I think the same way too. He is under a lot of pressure and he is assuring himself that he has it under control. He is reminding himself of his defence possibilities. They don't have a body, she is still considered missing, I put up a reward for any information, the evidence was tampered with...

I felt the same, He took a long pause before answering as if he had rehearsed/ memorized an answer and was trying his best to get all the points right.
