A: I'm sorry this happened to your grandmother. A North Dakota attorney needs to advise here, but your question remains open for three weeks. This is not my area of practice - but if your question continues to remain open, you could reach out to elder law attorneys (or law firms with experience in guardianships - they arise in many different settings, from personal injury to estate matters) to help take a closer look at the guardianship process here, and to determine whether things were handled with your grandmother's best interests in mind. Good luck
