Dispositional Order Appointing Guardian For Child Without Living Parent {JG-1706}

JG-1706 - DISPOSITIONAL ORDER APPOINTING GUARDIAN FOR CHILD WITHOUT A LIVING PARENT (§48.831, WIS. STATS.). This form is used by the Circuit Court in Wisconsin to formally appoint a guardian for a minor child who no longer has any living parents. The form documents the outcome of a court hearing held to determine whether guardianship is appropriate and who should be appointed as the child's guardian. It records key findings such as whether the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) applies, the suitability of the proposed guardian, whether adoption is in the child’s best interest, and whether the guardian will have full or limited legal authority over the child. The order ensures the legal establishment of a guardian with specific powers to make significant decisions affecting the child’s welfare, including medical care, education, and legal representation. §48.831, Wisconsin Statutes; 25 U.S.C. §1915. www.FormsWorkflow.com
