abstract="This article shows how state guardianship law can provide a mechanism for courts to reduce gun violence by removing the right to possess firearms from individuals  found, after hearing and due process, to be incapable of safely possessing them. It  explores how this often overlooked body of law not only complements extreme risk  protection orders where they exist, but can also be used to accomplish a portion of  what such orders are designed to do in states that have not authorized them. It  concludes by suggesting some modest adjustments to guardianship law and practice  that would help ensure that guardianship systems interventions in this arena are  fair and effective.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
