Notes of Decisions
Juvenile court initiating guardianship must proceed under guardianship statute found in juvenile code, not guardianship statute under probate code. Kelley v. Gibson, 184 Or App 343, 56 P3d 925 (2002)
Guardianship actions involving child who is not subject to court’s juvenile dependency jurisdiction and whose legal parent objects to appointment of guardian are subject to requirements of both this section and ORS 109.119. Burk v. Hall, 186 Or App 113, 62 P3d 394 (2003), Sup Ct review denied
Finding that appointment of guardian to make health care decisions for child is necessary by clear and convincing evidence does not require that court find natural parent to be unfit in general. State ex rel Juvenile Department v. Smith, 205 Or App 152, 133 P3d 924 (2006)
Court could not under probate code appoint grandfather as guardian for child of which juvenile court had taken wardship, because guardianship proceedings under juvenile dependency code are exclusive means for establishing guardianship for ward within juvenile court’s exclusive dependency jurisdiction and probate code does not provide alternative means for establishing guardianship. Keffer v. A.R.M., 313 Or App 503, 497 P3d 781 (2021)
