Mass. General Laws c.190B § 5A-208

Notice of proceeding

This is an unofficial version of a Massachusetts General Law.

Section 5A-208

If a petition for the appointment of a guardian or issuance of a protective order is brought in the commonwealth and the commonwealth was not the respondent's home state on the date the petition was filed, in addition to complying with the notice requirements of the commonwealth, notice of the petition shall be given to those persons who are entitled to notice of the petition if a proceeding were brought in the respondent's home state. The notice shall be given in the same manner as notice is required to be given in the commonwealth.
