Typically, guardianship is either granted over an elderly person whose capacity is diminished, or a mentally-challenged young adult. “You might have a child that turned 18 that is mentally challenged,” Cranford said. “The parents get adult guardianship over these children” because they have lost their parental rights on the 18th birthday.

Georgia Wills, Trusts, Estate Planning and Probate Blog: Kelli Wolk for Cobb County Probate Court Judge
“Running for Cobb County probate judge has been an amazing process,” Kelli says. “It has enabled me to put into practice many of the leadership, communication and networking skills we studied at the GAWL Leadership Academy.” Campaigning has given her the opportunity to meet a huge number of talented people and to do things she never would have experienced had she not thrown her hat into the ring. From attending forums and fairs and lugging 200 pound signs around the county, to taping television commercials, “Nothing brings home more just how large Cobb County really is than trying to meet all of its citizens,” says Kelli. Through her experience first as law clerk, then as a fulltime litigator before the Probate Court, Kelli has become passionate about the court and the services it provides to people in need and in crisis. Kelli’s enthusiasm for running for probate judge has kept her energized and on her toes.

ProbateSharks.com: Mayo Royal case rescheduled for January 23
. Following Royal’s resignation in May 2009 from the post he had held since August 2006, the Probate Court of Coweta County appointed Robert Hancock as temporary administrator of the Hollis estate and, in December 2009, the trial court granted the estate’s motion to intervene. In July 2010, Judge Lee granted Blackwell’s and Hancock’s motions for summary judgment. In originally granting the motions in favor of Blackwell and Hancock, the Coweta County Superior Court found that Royal had breached repeatedly the fiduciary duty he owed the estate and that those breaches supported an award of damages to Blackwell and the Hollis Estate and a forfeiture of any compensation paid to Royal as executor.

Gainesville Athens Jefferson lawyer joint tortfeasor
In M&M Mortgage Co. v. Grantville Mill (A09A2291 01/14/10), the Georgia Court Appeals reminds all Georgia civil litigators how costly suing a litigant in the wrong venue can be. M&M, which resided for venue purposes in either Fulton County of DeKalb County, sued Grantville Mill in Coweta County. Grantville filed a counterclaim against M&M. Venue as to M&M was proper in Coweta County because M&M submitted itself to the Coweta County court’s jurisdiction and venue by filing a claim there. Sometime in the litigation, Grantville moved to add as a counterclaim defendant M&M’s president, Michael Randles. Randles is a resident of DeKalb County. Nevertheless, the trial court allowed it and denied Randles’ motion to dismiss for improper venue.

BAIRD v. HUBBART, 2110255., June 08, 2012
The Act implicates and governs issues of custody, visitation, and the residence of children whose parents have divorced. Such issues are always subject to modification upon a proper petition. See, e.g., P.A. v. L.S., 78 So.3d 979, 982 (Ala.Civ.App.2011) (“Those earlier custody orders contain no indication that those orders were pendente lite custody orders rather than awards of custody subject to possible modification upon properly filed modification petitions.”); and McQuinn v. McQuinn, 866 So.2d 570, 575 (Ala.Civ.App.2003) (An award of visitation is final as to that issue “except as it may be subject to modification upon a change in circumstances ․”). As the trial court noted, pursuant to the law pertaining to the modification of custody and visitation, a material change in circumstances must be demonstrated. See Ex parte McLendon, supra (in modifying an award of primary physical custody, the party seeking the modification must demonstrate, in part, a material change in circumstances); Morgan v. Morgan, 964 So.2d 24, 34 (Ala.Civ.App.2007) (“In cases in which a parent seeks a modification of a joint-custody arrangement, the parent must prove “ ‘a material change of circumstances of the parties since the prior [judgment] which change of circumstances is such as to affect the welfare and best interest of the child or children involved.” ” ‘ (quoting Watters v. Watters, 918 So.2d 913, 916 (Ala.Civ.App.2005), quoting in turn Ponder v. Ponder, 50 Ala.App. 27, 30, 276 So.2d 613, 615 (Ala.Civ.App.1973))); Flanigan v. Flanigan, 656 So.2d 1228, 1230 (Ala.Civ.App.1995) (a party must establish a material change in circumstances to warrant a modification of visitation); and N.T. v.. P.G., 54 So.3d 918, 920 (Ala.Civ.App.2010) (“On a petition to modify visitation, a court ․ decides whether modification is warranted based on changed circumstances.”).
