Policy 13000 - Conservatee Transportation ProceduresConservatee Transportation Procedures • April 12th, 2022
In 1984, the former Orange County Marshal’s Department entered into an agreement with the County Public Guardian and the County Public Defender’s office for the transportation of Conservatees to the Superior Court from their respective mental health facilities. Under this agreement, the Juvenile Court was responsible for transporting these Conservatee Patients between the various mental health facilities and the court. Conservatorship is now under direction of the Probate Court. The Public Defender’s office and the Public Guardian’s office are now responsible for issuing and delivering transportation orders to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department in a timely manner as well as updating these orders when necessary.
