Hearing Date / Time

Nature of Proceedings

Review: Investigator's Report

Tentative Ruling

The Court Investigator reports the Conservatee has passed away. The Conservator has a mandatory duty to file a Notice of Conservatee’s Death (Form GC-399). (Prob. Code, § 2361.)

Accountings were previously waived in this case.

The death of a conservatee terminates the conservatorship by operation of law. (Prob. Code, § 1860, subd. (c).) However, death of the conservatee “does not cause the court to lose jurisdiction of the proceeding for the purpose of settling the accounts of the conservator or for any other purpose incident to the enforcement of the judgments and orders of the court upon such accounts or upon the termination of the relationship.” (Prob. Code, § 2630.)

The court anticipates receiving a petition for an order permitting the guardian or conservator to liquidate the decedent’s estate, in accordance with the procedure set forth in Probate Code section 2631 et seq.

The court notes that there are past due Court Investigator fees in the amount of $1,600 is owed. $400 for 2011, $400 for 2013, $400 for 2020, and $400 for 2022.
