Anyone applyijng for guardianship must be represented by an Approved Guardianship Attorney. The attorney will send a request for a Waiver of Right to Appointment to the wife. If she does not sign the Waiver and contests the applicant's request for appointment, the applicant will have to show that she is not quallified. The nonactions which you mention will need to be proven.
