This week, the Supreme Court closed out a term full of blockbuster decisions by setting off alarm bells for those who believe the judiciary has overreached its authority. However, writing for The New York Times, AEI Director of Social, Cultural, and Constitutional Studies Yuval Levin contends that the Court is pushing everyone in our system, including federal judges and Congress, toward their proper constitutional responsibility.

Without a comprehensive incapacity plan, if you become incapacitated and unable to manage your affairs, a judge will need to appoint someone to take control of your money and property (known as a conservator or guardian of the estate) and to make all personal and medical decisions for you (known as a guardian or guardian of the person) under court-supervised guardianship and conservatorship proceedings. The guardian and conservator may be the same person, or two different people may be appointed to these roles. Depending on state requirements, the conservator may have to report all financial transactions to the court annually or at least every few years. The conservator is also typically required to obtain court permission before entering into certain financial transactions (such as mortgaging or selling real estate). Similarly, the guardian may be required to obtain court permission before making life-sustaining or life-ending medical decisions. The court-supervised guardianship and conservatorship are effective until you either regain the ability to make your own decisions or you pass away. Have you planned for incapacity?

Attention Colorado Risk Managers, Brokers, Attorneys, and Insurance Consultants working with clients in the Education Sector: it's crucial to be aware of the passing of HB 10-39. Below, I've extracted key highlights from the HB24-1039 Non-Legal Name Changes (signed act, 4/29/2024) after the below from The Independence Institute Education Policy Center. #riskmangers #education #liabiliy #lawsuits #discrimination #coo #ceo "In April, Governor Polis signed HB-1039, the non-legal name bill. The left-leaning legislature continues to undermine parental rights. Public school children now have the right to choose a non-legal name that reflects their gender identity. If anyone working in a school doesn’t comply, they can be charged with discrimination. School boards will decide whether parents are notified of the name change." Understanding Colorado HOUSE BILL 24-1039, is a legislative proposal that aims to create a more inclusive environment for students in Colorado schools by recognizing their chosen names. Key Points of the Bill: Chosen Name: Students can be addressed by a name that reflects their gender identity, different from their legal name. Gender Identity: Acknowledged as an individual’s innate sense of their own gender, which may not align with their sex assigned at birth. Usage in Schools: School personnel must use students’ chosen names in all school-related settings and activities. Anti-Discrimination: It’s discriminatory to intentionally use a different name or avoid using a student’s chosen name. Reporting Mechanisms: Students can report discrimination to their school or through Title IX policies. Policy Requirements: Schools must establish policies to respect students’ chosen names, including on school records, in compliance with federal privacy laws. The Impact: This bill represents a commitment to respect and dignity for all students, ensuring that their identities are honored within the educational system. https://lnkd.in/gH9B9595

Senior Estate Planner from Rockwills Corporation, with 9 years' experience in Will-writing and trust setup.
When to update your Will? (2) Newborn Updating your will after the birth of a child is of paramount importance. By naming a guardian in your will, you can designate a trusted individual to take care of your child if something happens to you and your partner, avoiding potential court battles or uncertainty. Additionally, updating your will allows you to establish financial arrangements, such as trusts, to manage your child's inheritance responsibly, ensuring they are provided for until they reach adulthood. Without these updates, your child might not be adequately protected or provided for, and your estate might not be distributed according to your current wishes, potentially leading to legal disputes and financial difficulties for your child.

3moIt's concerning to see the SSA's reliance on outdated data in a rapidly changing job market, crucial for effective disability benefits administration. Furthermore, the potential implications of a "post-American Europe" highlight the importance of international alliances and the complex dynamics of contemporary global politics. The housing market report by Edward J. Pinto and Tobias Peter provides a sobering look at the challenges faced by first-time homebuyers. The interplay between rising home prices and income stagnation demands innovative solutions to ensure affordable housing. These discussions are common not only to American society, but to other countries as well, and collectively highlight the multifaceted challenges and opportunities facing our political and economic environment. I'm curious what others think about how we can effectively address these challenges.
