Guardianship Changes May Be Working In Nebraska

Chief Justice Michael Heavican, the top judge in Nebraska, stated that the recent changes in the oversight of guardians and conservators in Nebraska “has exposed cases of theft and misuse of funds” and provided more protection for those under conservators. Even with this success, some guardians have decried that new requirements are too strict for spouses who are guardians.
