IN THE MATTER OF THE GUARDIANSHIP OF AARON S. S., AN ALLEGED MENTALLY RETARDED PERSON (13/1684) — This is a proceed-ing pursuant to Article 17-A of the Surrogate’s Court Procedure Act for the ap-pointment of the petitioner as guardian of the person of the respondent, an alleged mentally retard-ed person.

Upon the oral and documentary proof adduced at the hearing at which the pro-posed guardian and the respondent were present, and upon the report of Mental Hygiene Legal Service, First Judicial De-partment (MHLS), it appears to the satis-fac-tion of the court that the respondent is a mentally retarded person within the provi-sions of Article 17-A of the SCPA and lacks the capacity to make health care decisions. The court is further satisfied that the petitioner and the proposed standby and alternate standby guardians are quali-fied to assume the responsibility of serving as the respondent’s guardian.
