Wisconsin Order on Petition for Temporary Guardianship is a court order that grants temporary guardianship of a minor child or adult with disabilities in the state of Wisconsin. This order is usually requested by a family member or a person close to the individual in need of temporary guardianship. It allows the temporary guardian to make decisions regarding the individual’s care and safety, such as medical and financial decisions, until a formal guardianship is arranged. There are two types of Wisconsin Order on Petition for Temporary Guardianship. The first is a Temporary Guardianship of a Minor, which is typically granted when a parent or guardian cannot care for the minor child due to illness, absence, or death. The second type is a Temporary Guardianship of an Adult with Disabilities, which is typically granted when an adult is unable to care for themselves due to physical or mental disability.
