Assembly Bill
No. 1927


Introduced by Assembly Member Nazarian

February 09, 2022


An act to amend Section 416.1 of the Health and Safety Code, relating to developmental services.


LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 1927, as introduced, Nazarian. Director of Developmental Services: guardianship and conservatorship.
Existing law, the Guardianship-Conservatorship Law, generally establishes the standards and procedures for the appointment and termination of an appointment for a guardian or conservator of a person, an estate, or both. Existing law authorizes the Director of Developmental Services, upon nomination and acceptance, to be appointed as either guardian or conservator of the person or estate, or both, of a person with developmental disabilities. Existing law specifies that the Guardianship-Conservatorship Law applies when the Director of Developmental Services is appointed as the guardian or conservator of a person with developmental disabilities.
This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to that provision.
Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: NO   Local Program: NO  

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:


SECTION 1.

 Section 416.1 of the Health and Safety Code is amended to read:

416.1.
 Unless exceptions are expressly made in this article, the provisions of Division 4 (commencing with Section 1400) of the Probate Code shall apply to guardianship and conservatorship appointments made under this article.
