§ 59-3057 — Same; procedure

Upon the filing of a petition as provided for in K.S.A. 59-3056, and amendments thereto, the court shall issue an order fixing the date, time and place of the trial on the petition and order that notice of this trial shall be given to such persons as the court shall direct. The trial may be held forthwith and without notice if the court determines that holding a trial forthwith and without notice is in the best interests of the petitioner. Upon completion of the trial, if the court finds that the petitioner has knowingly and voluntarily made this request and that it is in the best interests of the petitioner that a conservator be appointed, the court, upon the filing of an oath and a bond in such an amount as the court may direct pursuant to K.S.A. 59-3069, and amendments thereto, shall issue letters of conservatorship to the individual or corporation named in the petition, if fit and proper to be so appointed.
