Trial to Determine Guardianship

A trial to determine guardianship of the sons of a missing Northland mother will be held July 31, a Clay County judge ordered today.

Linda Lockwood, the mother of Renee Pernice, is seeking guardianship of her missing daughter’s children.

In a previous court filing, Lockwood contended that the father of her grandchildren, Shon Pernice, was unfit to be a parent and unable to care for the children.

Lockwood and her husband, Douglas Lockwood, made the filing in March. She noted in the petition that her daughter has been missing since early January and that the Clay County prosecutor has said there is substantial evidence she is dead.
