In re the Guardianship of: Doris Anita Seward

Syllabus

Doris Anita Seward has advanced Alzheimer's disease. Appellant Taylor Lars Florin-Clemants is Seward's adult grandson. Respondent Judith Yess is Seward's daughter and legal guardian. In July 2022, Yess moved Seward from her home—where she had been under the care of Florin-Clemants—to an assisted-living facility. Florin-Clemants then filed a petition to remove Yess as Seward's guardian, appoint himself as a successor guardian, and return Seward to her home. The district court denied the petition, and Florin- Clemants now appeals that decision. He argues that the district court erred as a matter of law by denying his request to remove Yess as guardian and abused its discretion by denying his request to change Seward's abode. Because the district court did not err in denying Florin-Clemants's petition, we affirm. 1
