This form is used in guardianship or conservatorship cases to assign a regional center (a facility that evaluates people with developmental disabilities) to assess the person who may become a ward or conservatee, and to assign a public defender to represent that person in court if they cannot afford a lawyer. Someone who is elderly, incapacitated, or has a developmental disability and may need a court-appointed guardian or conservator to manage their affairs would need this form.
