Nebraska Supreme Court

In re Guardianship of Patrick W.

April 19, 2024316 Neb. 381

Summary

The court affirmed the order finding Patrick W. incapacitated and appointing a permanent guardian. It held that materials described in the first sentence of section 30-4204 may be admitted when obtained by the guardian ad litem and concerning the person subject to guardianship, even if the materials would otherwise be excluded under hearsay rules. The court also concluded that the record contained competent evidence supporting the incapacity finding and the determination that a full guardianship was the least restrictive alternative.
