The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6818, seeks to amend section 45a-649 of the general statutes to enhance the notification process for family members when an application for the appointment of a conservator of the estate is filed. The bill mandates that the Probate Court must personally serve a copy of the application to the person's parents, siblings, and children who are eighteen years or older before taking any action on the application. Additionally, it requires that all family members served with the application are informed about the potential consequences of the conservatorship appointment as outlined in subsection (b) of section 45a-469.

The purpose of this legislation is to ensure that family members are adequately informed about the conservatorship process and the implications it may have on their loved one. By instituting these requirements, the bill aims to promote transparency and protect the rights and interests of individuals who may be affected by the appointment of a conservator.
