Yes, certain notices can be waived if an emergency exists, and courts will try to fit emergency hearings on their existing dockets. 

The court may appoint a guardian on an emergency basis if it finds that harm to a person’s health, safety, or welfare will result without an emergency guardian being appointed. 

The emergency guardianship cannot exceed 60 days. Therefore, a more standard guardianship petition and hearing must be subsequently held no later than 60 days after the appointment of emergency guardianship. Otherwise, the guardian’s authority automatically expires.
