Litigant briefing · court process
Before you eFile discharge / terminate
This brief is about filing into court (forms, service, deadlines, what the judge may ask). It is not how to be a guardian day-to-day, and not whether guardianship or a less-restrictive option is appropriate.
What you are filing. You are asking the court to end this adult guardianship — a subsequent pleading on the existing PB case, not a new petition.
Court forms stay behind the scenes: PBGCDA11f, PBGCD19f, PBGCD29f.
What the court expects
- You can explain why the ward no longer needs a guardian.
- Supporting documents are ready if the court will require them.
- Parties with email on file get service copies.
Service. After eFile, interested parties with email on the address book get a service copy.
Next step after submit. Expect a hearing in many cases. Bring evidence and be ready for the judge’s questions; Letters end only when the court orders discharge.
This is process and paperwork literacy — not legal advice. An attorney can still advise you; briefing is available whether or not counsel is on the case.
Check your understanding
Mark every item above before you can attest and eFile.
