GUARDIANSHIP OF MICHELE S., PURSUANT TO SCPA ARTICLE 17-A (17/797) — This is a proceeding pursuant to Article 17-A of the Surrogate’s Court Procedure Act for the appointment of the petitioner as guardian of the person and property of the respondent, an alleged intellectually disabled person.

Upon the oral and documentary proof adduced at the hearing at which the proposed guardian appeared and the court waived the appearance of the respondent based on the medical certifications, it appears to the satisfaction of the court that the respondent is an intellectually disabled person within the provisions of Article 17-A of the SCPA and lacks the capacity to make healthcare decisions. The court is also satisfied that the petitioner, and the proposed standby and first alternate guardians are qualified to assume the responsibility as serving as the respondent’s guardian.
