MATTER OF THE GUARDIANSHIP OF CHRISTIAN D. G., (2881/12) — This is a proceeding pursuant to Article 17-A of the Surrogate’s Court Procedure Act for the appointment of the petitioners as guardians of the person of the respondent, an alleged mentally retarded person.

At the hearing the proposed guardians were present and, on the record, they requested that their petition be amended to request that they be appointed guardians of a mentally retarded person. The court waived the appearance of the respondent based upon the medical certifications. Upon the oral and documentary proof adduced at the hearing, it appears to the satisfaction of the court that the respondent is a mentally retarded person within the provisions of Article 17-A of the SCPA, that she lacks the capacity to make health care decisions and the petitioners are qualified to serve as the respondent’s guardian.
