The Court is only allowed to consider arguments made in the courtroom and in documents properly filed by actual parties in the case as authorized by law and the Rules of Court.

Guardianship
To all counsel for Guardians: Starting January 1, 2025, requests for fees and costs for guardians or attorneys that were incurred more than one year prior to the petition will not be granted unless such fees and costs were noted in the Annual Accounting applicable to the year fees and costs were incurred. The Annual Accounting must be audited by the Clerk of Court and an order approving the Annual Accounting must be entered before the Court will consider any such fees and costs. Guardians are encouraged to file Petitions for Fees and Costs more frequently than once per year. Ideally, such petitions should be filed quarterly.
If there are any questions or concerns, please contact Judge Kallaher’s office using the contact information below.
