- Our Summary: The probate court declined to grant the full guardianship, see § 1101.151, that was recommended by her treating physician of roughly ten years, the court's investigator, and Noelle's parents, and which Noelle's attorney ad litem did not argue against or refute. In multiple issues, Appellants M.P. (Mother) and J.P. (Father) challenge the probate court's denial of their application to be appointed full guardians of the person of their intellectually disabled adult daughter. Because we hold that the probate court abused its discretion in not appointing guardians with full authority when the need was uncontested and the evidence supported it, we reverse.
