In a Mental Hygiene Law Article 81 adult guardianship proceeding, most Courts require motions to settle a guardian’s final report or final account be made by Order to Show Cause. The same can be said for interim motions in adult guardianship proceedings.
In Nassau County Supreme Court, however, motions to settle a final account must be made by notice of motion. This is a “principal exception” to the general rule in Nassau County that most motions in adult guardianship proceedings be made by Order to Show Cause, or “OSC”.
