Surrogate Malave-Gonzalez

THE GUARDIANSHIP OF ALAB G. V., Pursuant to SCPA Article 17-A (20-578) — This is a proceeding pursuant to Article 17-A of the Surrogate’s Court Procedure Act for the appointment of the petitioners as guardians of the person of the respondent, an alleged intellectually disabled person. Upon the oral and documentary proof adduced at the virtual hearing at which the petitioners and the ward appeared remotely, 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 that she lacks the capacity to make health care decisions. The court is further satisfied that the petitioners and the proposed standby guardian are qualified to assume the responsibility of serving as the respondent’s guardian. Accordingly, the application is granted. Letters of guardianship of the person of the respondent shall issue to her parents, Ma A. V. A. and Rey A. G. A. A cousin, Ferdinand L. is appointed standby guardian, to serve when the primary guardians are no longer able to do so. The successor guardian shall assume the duties of his office subject to qualification and confirmation pursuant to SCPA 1757. The Chief Clerk is directed to mail a copy of this decision and the decree to the pro se petitioners. Decree signed. August 9, 2021
