Petition For Appointment Of Emergency Guardian {JN-1504}

JN-1504 - PETITION FOR APPOINTMENT OF EMERGENCY GUARDIAN. This form is used to request the appointment of an emergency guardian for a minor child under Wisconsin Statutes §48.9795. It is filed in situations where the petitioner believes that immediate action is necessary to protect the child's welfare due to circumstances that present a risk of imminent physical harm or danger. The form provides information about the child’s residence, biological parents, any current guardians or custodians, and additional interested parties. The petitioner must identify the proposed emergency guardian, explain the circumstances that justify the emergency appointment, and demonstrate the proposed guardian's fitness to serve. If the child is subject to the Indian Child Welfare Act, specific tribal notification and compliance requirements apply. The petitioner may also request temporary emergency guardianship without a hearing until the court can review the full petition. If granted, the emergency guardianship may later be challenged by interested parties, who are entitled to a rehearing within 30 days. §48.9795, Wisconsin Statutes. www.FormsWorkflow.com
