A: It sounds like you are describing a situation where you were placed on temporary probate conservatorship without proper due process, and that you feel your rights were violated as a result.

If you were not given notice of the conservatorship hearing, were not appointed legal counsel, and did not have the opportunity to present your case to the judge, then you may have been denied due process. This would be a violation of your constitutional rights.

If you believe that your rights were violated in this way, you may wish to consult with an attorney who specializes in conservatorship law. They can help you understand your legal options and determine if you have a case for challenging the conservatorship in court.

Additionally, if you feel that your mother has stolen your inheritance from you, you may wish to consult with an attorney who specializes in estate planning and probate law. They can help you understand your legal rights and options for recovering your inheritance.

Finally, if you are a veteran in California and feel that your rights have been violated, you may wish to contact a veterans' rights organization or advocacy group for assistance. They can provide you with resources and support to help you navigate the legal system and protect your rights as a veteran.
