AI Summary
This bill allows for a complaint for guardianship of a minor receiving developmental disability services to be filed up to 180 days before the minor reaches the age of 18. It also establishes certain standards for filing guardianship complaints, including that the complaint and accompanying documentation shall not be withdrawn absent a showing that the individual is deceased or has capacity, and that this showing may be satisfied by testimony rather than requiring medical evidence.
