Instead of OSHA keeping watch over the safety of first responders, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) may wind up responsible for enforcing health and safety regulations.
A legal guardian is a person who has the legal authority (and the corresponding duty) to care for the personal and property interests of another person, called a ward.
The Court may appoint a lawyer to act as the Guardian ad litem (GAL) or the child's attorney. As âAttorney for the Minor Child,â it is the lawyer's job to represent to the Court the child's wishes. A GAL represents to the Court what is in the child's best interest. The younger the child, the more likely it is that the lawyer will be appointed as GAL.
