Q: guardianship says I need permission to move aunt out of Michigan how do I petition court?
Aunt is in nursing home in Michigan, I need to move her to Ohio. I am next of kin and have guardianship. I told the judge I wanted guardianship specifically to move her to Ohio. He said I have 4 months to do so, but paperwork states I can not move her out of state. No one is giving me the information on how to legally move her, what forms?, how to petition?, how to file? how to ask court? How do I do this? she will be going from nursing home to nursing home.
A: You will likely need to file a petition and order in the court that granted you guardianship.
