CCP 0225 - PETITION TO APPOINT STANDBY GUARDIAN AS GUARDIAN OF A PERSON WITH A DISABILITY. This form is used in the Probate Division of the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois when a previously appointed guardian of a person with a disability is no longer able to serve due to death, resignation, or incapacity.

The petitioner must confirm their prior appointment as standby guardian and demonstrate they are qualified to take over the responsibilities of guardianship, whether for the person, the estate, or both. The form is filed pursuant to Section 11a-18.2(c) of the Illinois Probate Act, and it includes necessary supporting documentation, such as a death certificate or resignation letter, to establish why the original guardian can no longer serve. www.FormsWorkflow.com
