  • In a guardianship proceeding, the rules relating to witnesses and evidence that govern in the district court apply as far as practicable. If there is no opposing party or attorney of record on whom to serve notice and copies of interrogatories, service may be had by posting notice of the intention to take depositions for a period of 10 days as provided by this chapter in the provisions governing a posting of notice. When notice by posting under this section is filed with the clerk, a copy of the interrogatories shall also be filed. At the expiration of the 10-day period, commission may issue for taking the depositions and the judge may file cross-interrogatories if no person appears.
