Second Read and Referred S Judiciary and Civil and Criminal Jurisprudence Committee
Summary
The bill lets a judge appoint the Missouri Division of Probation and Parole to act as a forensic guardian for people who are deemed incapacitated and who have serious criminal histories, are on probation or parole, have court‑ordered restrictions, are registered sex offenders, or pose a risk of serious harm. It also repeals several current guardianship sections and inserts new sections that redefine terms like guardian, conservator, and trust‑related concepts. The measure failed to pass and was last referred to a Senate committee.
