Additional question: understanding of division (B) of the provided language is that the modification of any custody or visitation orders is prohibited until the probate court issues a final order to appoint a guardian to the adult child with a disability. Are there any exceptions to this, e.g., for a parent who receives an order for active military service (R.C. 3109.04(I) and 3109.051(M)) or change of circumstances that makes modification necessary for the child’s best interest?
Thank you,

Subject: Re: Guardianship Bill
Tyler,
To answer LSC's questions:
#1 - GAL provisions are for this bill only. No modifications to 3109 are needed or required.
#2 - No modification of the fee assignments is needed for this section. LSC's presumption that payment plans are required and that one party does not unnecessarily run the bill up is false.
No modifications to the proposed bill are needed. All we need are the LSC numbers so this can be introduced.
Representative Schimdt is not the only one waiting for this to clear LSC; there are several others.
