Section 700.5104 - Request or notice; interested person(1) An interested person who desires to be notified before an order is made in a guardianship proceeding, including a proceeding subsequent to the appointment of a guardian under section 5312, or in a protective proceeding under section 5401 must file a request for notice with the register of the court in which the proceeding is pending and with the attorney of record of the guardian or conservator or, if none, with the guardian or conservator, if any. A request is not effective unless it contains a statement showing the interest of the person making it and the address of that person or an attorney to whom notice is to be given. The request is effective only as to a proceeding that occurs after the filing. If a guardianship or protective proceeding is not pending at the time a person files a request for notice as authorized by this subsection, the person shall pay a fee for filing the request, which fee shall be in the same amount as, but is separate from, the fee required to commence such a proceeding.(2) A governmental agency paying benefits to the individual to be protected or before whom an application for benefits is pending is an interested person in a protective proceeding.1998, Act 386, Eff. 4/1/2000 .
