I will try to contact them.
Judge Stoever was the first judge who heard my uncle's case. Three months after I was appointed temp. conservator and after many objections by Robin, there was a hearing on my temp. appointment. Judge Stoever had just a sampling of Robin's conduct and after receiving evidence, including a video tape transcript of Rami's depo, made a finding that Rami had the capacity to make an intelligent preference as to who he wanted to act as his conservator and that his choice was not the product of undue influence or fraud. He made these findings eight months before trial and after giving Rami two court appointed attorneys. These attorneys made recommendations to the court after lengthy investigations and interviews with Rami.
Judge Joseph Kalin made findings at trial that were not before him. The only issue was who should be conservator. Kalin went further by finding that Rami lacked the capacity to form an intelligent preference as to who he wanted as his conservator. Kalin had no power to make that finding, it had already been made by Judge Stoever. But Kalin had no problem accepting Rami's CONSENT to the conservatorship. How can Rami have capacity to consent but lack capacity to say who he wants?????
Judge Aviva Bob received Rami's case for post trial issues the first week she was transferred to the probate court, with no prior experience in probate. She listened to the "big firm", Holland & Knight and to the "professional" conservator, Dan Stubbs.
please keep us posted.
