Can the grandchildren who live in Ohio get guardianship over their grandmother who lives in New Jersey?

Can the grandchildren who live in Ohio get guardianship over their grandmother who lives in New Jersey and have a power of attorney.

Dustoff is correct. Judges want a Guardian to be within their jurisdiction. You won't get a guardianship in NJ, you are too far away and the judge has no means to summon you to court across state lines.
