The Ind. Supreme Court has issued GAL Guidelines in Indiana for the first time. GAL’s must now meet certain requirements to be appointed in cases starting Jan 1, 2025, and the cases must be handled pursuant to standards. There is an Oversight Committee to address qualification issues as well as complaints submitted. If you are a GAL, or ever use them, you should know the new rules governing them.
