Re: Guardian for Incapacitated Individual
The temporary guardian has the direct authority. The guardian ad litem (who is usually an attorney) is appointed by the court to protect the "best interests" of the alleged incapacitated individual. The guardian ad litem reports to the presiding judge. Keep in mind that the court has continuing authority over the guardianship both during the proceedings and even after the guardianship is in place. -GJR
