Committee: House S/C on Family & Fiduciary Relationships

Keywords: disability, supported decision-making, legal assistance, confidentiality, access to justice, autonomy, civil rights, advocacy

Summary: The committee met at 5:39 p.m. with a quorum present and took up one item, Senate Bill 66. The chair laid out a committee substitute for the bill, which concerns supportive decision-making agreements as an alternative to full guardianship for adults with disabilities who can make their own choices but may need assistance understanding options, accessing information, and making decisions. The substitute would direct the Office of Court Administration to conduct an interim study on the legal and ethical issues involved in allowing a supporter under such an agreement to assist an adult with a disability in criminal or civil legal proceedings. The discussion noted stakeholder concerns about confidentiality, attorney-client privilege, and how the proposal would work in practice. The study is to examine effects on privilege and confidentiality, identify related estate code and other legal provisions that may need amendment, evaluate best practices from other jurisdictions, and recommend statutory changes. No committee members asked questions, and no one registered or appeared to testify. The chair closed the hearing, withdrew the committee substitute and left it pending, then concluded the agenda. The committee adjourned without objection, subject to the call of the chair.
