QUESTION
Can I file a petition for guardian for two siblings in a guardianship case for one sibling?
Asked on Feb 19th, 2014 on Child Custody - Rhode Island
More details to this question:
An existing guardianship case exists filed by maternal aunt relating to one child. A paternal grandfather wants to object to the petition and file a petition for guardianship relating to that child and the child's brother. Can the new petition asking for guardianship of both children be filed in the existing case?

I don't think so. While the courts will sometimes allow a petition for more than one child, given the way this case has started, I think Grandpa should file a separate case for the other child. If aunt doesn't care, then that will be the easy case.
