Legal Question in Elder Law in California

Aging & Adult Protective Serv Fidic

If a possible elder care living trust problem was reported. Caregiver/family member/Trustee & POA (all same person) spending alot money. Possibly not in best interest of elder. if agency checked into ongoings regarding this would information of outcome be available anywhere? I believe agency got duped by the info provided to them. l believe receipts and deductions dont match actual withdrawals, spending & reported income records. But one can make dates & amounts fit perfectly in spread sheet. So at first glance all is on the up n up.

If actually was caught I'm sure powers re: trust and poa would be taken away however alt trustee would take over and in reality that would put the original trustee back in charge thru them.

Would like to know if agency would file suit and if so how long before doing so if they found wrong doings? and if the agency doesnt find wrongs, is their info avail so someone else may compare to what they have as well.

No agency 'files suit', they file criminal charges if appropriate.
