Can I be held in contempt of court if I can not bring my husband to the hearing for my guardianship of him, due to his condition? It is humanly impossible for me to do so at the time the hearing is set for and the Judge will not change the time.

You may have jumped the gun so to speak. You need to apply for temporary guardianship and have the committee from the mental health dept of the court go out and determine if he really is incapacitated. At that time an attorney will be appointment to represent your husband's interest. If it is determined that he is incapacitated then a guardianship hearing will be held. I hope you have an attorney to handle this for you, if not, please contact my office if you are in my area for representation.
