Make the determinations required by Probate Code sections 1826(a)(4)­(7), and (9)­(10). In making those determinations, review the allegations of the Petition for Appointment of Probate Conservator (form GC-310) as to why the appointment of a conservator is required and refer to the Confidential Supplemental Information (form GC-312) submitted by the petitioner. Consider the facts shown in the latter form that address each of the categories specified in Probate Code section 1821(a)(1)­(5) and consider, to the extent practicable, whether you believe the proposed conservatee suffers from any of the mental function deficits listed in Probate Code section 811(a) that significantly impairs his or her ability to understand and appreciate the consequences of his or her actions in connection with any of the functions described in Probate Code section 1801(a) (if a conservator of the person is sought) or section 1801(b) (if a conservator of the estate is sought). If you believe the proposed conservatee suffers from one or more mental function deficits listed in Probate Code section 811(a), identify all observations that support your belief. e. A person is presumed competent to vote regardless of his or her conservatorship status.

The proposed conservatee may not be disqualified from voting on the basis that he or she does, or would need to do, any of the following to complete an affidavit of voter registration: (1) signs the affidavit of voter registration with a mark or a cross (Elections Code section 2150(b)); (2) signs the affidavit of voter registration by means of a signature stamp (Elections Code section 354.5); (3) completes the affidavit of voter registration with the assistance of another person (Elections Code section 2150(d)); or (4) completes the affidavit of voter registration with reasonable accommodations. f. Report to the court in writing, at least five days before the hearing, concerning all of the foregoing, including the proposed conservatee's express communications concerning (1) representation by legal counsel; and (2) whether he or she is not willing to attend the hearing, does not wish to contest the establishment of the conservatorship, and does not object to the proposed conservator or prefers that another person act as conservator. g. Mail, at least five days before the date set for hearing, a copy of your report (1) to all persons listed in Probate Code section 1826(a)(12) except for the persons listed in attachment 1g(1) because the court has determined that mailing to those persons will result in harm to the proposed conservatee; and (2) to the other persons ordered by the court listed in Attachment 1g(2) (specify names and addresses in the attachment). h.
