1. If a petition to have a guardian removed is filed with the court, the court shall issue and serve a citation on the guardian and on all other interested persons.
2. The citation must require the guardian to appear and show cause why the court should not remove the guardian.
3. If it appears that the protected person or estate may suffer loss or injury during the time required for service of the citation on the guardian, on the court’s own motion or on petition, the court may:
(a) Suspend the powers of the guardian by issuing a 30-day temporary restraining order or an injunction;
(b) Compel the guardian to surrender the protected person to a temporary guardian for not more than 30 days; and
(c) Compel the guardian to surrender the assets of the estate to a temporary guardian or to the public guardian until the date set for the hearing.
