If a guardianship petition is filed, who has to know about it?
In addition to the person who actually files the Guardianship Petition, the person who is alleged to be incapacitated has to be served with the Petition via formal notice. Also, all the next of kin who are related to the person who is alleged to be incapacitated have to be noticed and any other known interested person, which is a specifically defined kind of person under Florida Law.
