CA AB2090

Clarifies that a parent is authorized to file a petition for guardianship of an unmarried individual ages 18-21 in connection with special immigrant juvenile status proceedings.

Allows courts to appoint guardians of the person for individuals 18-21 years old with the proposed ward's consent, specifically for purposes of making special immigrant juvenile status findings under federal immigration law.

Permits courts to extend existing guardianships past age 18 to allow wards to complete the special immigrant juvenile status application process with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.

Prohibits guardians from abrogating rights that 18-year-olds have as adults under state law, including decisions on medical treatment, education, or residence, without the ward's express consent.

Requires the Judicial Council to adopt necessary rules and forms by July 1, 2016 to implement the guardianship provisions.
