The Illinois Petition to Settle Cause of action-Minors Estate is a document filed in the Circuit Court of the county where the minor resides. It is used to ask the court to appoint a guardian or a guardian ad item to oversee the financial affairs of a minor or a minor’s estate. This can include the distribution of assets, the payment of debts, or the management of assets. The petition is typically filed by a parent or legal guardian of the minor, but may also be filed by an attorney representing the minor. There are two different types of Illinois Petition to Settle Cause of Action-Minors Estate: one for a minor under the age of 18 and one for a minor between the ages of 18 and 21. If the minor is over the age of 18, the petition must include the minor's consent to the appointment of a guardian or guardian ad item. The petition must include various information, such as the minor's name, date of birth, address, and financial information, as well as a list of assets and debts. The petitioner must also list the reasons why the court should appoint a guardian or guardian ad item, such as the financial inability of the minor to manage his or her own affairs. Once the petition is filed, the court will review the information provided and make a decision whether a guardian or guardian ad item should be appointed. The court may also order the petitioner to provide additional information or to attend a hearing. If the court approves the petition, the court will appoint a guardian or guardian ad item and the minor's financial affairs will be managed by the appointed guardian.
