Abstract
There can be little doubt that guardianship monitoring is a critical issue. Much progress has been made in the field over the years thanks to the energy, verve, and staying power of exemplary probate courts and guardianship advocates. Many questions remain with respect to the issues that have been raised: the extent of authority granted to a guardian, how guardians understand and clarify authority granted; how guardians communicate with courts, how they report to courts, and how courts in turn exercise oversight and provide assistance to the guardian. Although financial considerations are always critical, the will to monitor guardianships, realistic cost effective tools to do so, and persistence in seeking out solutions to these dilemmas are just as important and maybe, even more.
