NJ A4802

Establishes the "Safe Guardianship Act" prohibiting courts from appointing as guardian any person who is a party to a civil action or has a temporary or final restraining order against them that names the incapacitated person as the opposing party.

Requires judicial review of existing guardianship arrangements when a civil action or domestic violence complaint is filed after letters of guardianship were previously entered.

Mandates courts to determine before setting bail whether a domestic violence defendant is a ward of, or has been appointed guardian of, the victim or any household member.

Requires plaintiffs seeking restraining orders to disclose whether the defendant is their appointed guardian or is being considered for guardianship, and courts must determine the guardianship status of both parties before issuing temporary or final restraining orders.

Authorizes courts issuing final restraining orders to remove a party as guardian or deny guardianship consideration for either the plaintiff or defendant as appropriate.
