A conservatorship is created by the appointment of a conservator, also sometimes called a guardian. A conservator is a person appointed by a court to manage the property, daily affairs, and financial affairs of another person (sometimes called the ward), who is unable by reason of a physical or mental infirmity or age to handle his/her affairs. For example, an adult daughter may be appointed as the conservator for her father who is suffering from advanced Alzheimer's disease. An open hearing is held before the appointment is made.

Different types of Nebraska Objection to Appointment of Petitioner as Conservator of the Estate of an Adult include: 1. Alleged Incompetence or Lack of Capacity: In this type of objection, it is argued that the petitioner lacks the necessary competence or capacity to effectively manage and make decisions regarding the adult's estate. This objection may focus on the petitioner's mental or physical health, financial irresponsibility, or inability to handle complex financial matters. 2. Conflict of Interest: This objection targets situations where the petitioner has a personal or financial interest that may compromise their ability to act in the best interest of the adult's estate. It may assert that the petitioner has a history of mismanaging their own finances, has an existing legal dispute with the adult, or stands to benefit financially from the conservatorship appointment. 3. Neglect or Abuse: This objection argues that the petitioner has a history of neglecting or abusing their duties and responsibilities towards the adult in question or has demonstrated misconduct or malfeasance in other guardianship or conservatorship roles. It may present evidence of financial exploitation, neglect of basic care needs, or previous convictions related to financial fraud or abuse. 4. Unsuitability or Lack of Qualifications: This objection contends that the petitioner lacks the necessary skills, experience, or education to effectively manage the complex financial aspects of the adult's estate. It may argue that the petitioner has no prior experience in financial management, lacks knowledge of relevant Nebraska laws and regulations, or has a history of poor financial decision-making. 5. Alternative Proposed Conservator: This type of objection does not challenge the competence or suitability of the petitioner directly. Instead, it suggests an alternative individual who may be better suited to fulfill the role of conservator for the adult's estate. This objection may outline the proposed conservator's qualifications, experience, and reasons why they would be a better fit for the appointment. When filing a Nebraska Objection to Appointment of Petitioner as Conservator of the Estate of an Adult, it is important to clearly state the grounds for the objection, provide supporting evidence, and adhere to the specific filing requirements and procedures outlined by the Nebraska court system.
