Stat. § 524.5-501(c) [the probate statute dealing with appointment of guardians or conservators on referral under section 176.092]” and finding “nothing in the Workers’ Compensation Act authorizing the relief requested.” Botler v.

Here, the district court order included findings that summarized provisions of the Service Fee Policy and the Standards of Practice. Although the district court took notice of these provisions after the hearing, the actual documents do not appear in the record. Appellants assert that they were not aware of the district court’s consideration of these materials until they received its decision. The Service Fee Policy represents a position taken by Aitkin County regarding the appropriate fees to be charged when a guardian represents an indigent ward, and the policy is referenced in the statutes. Minn. Stat. § 524.5-502. The statutory reference is significant because it puts parties on notice that such a policy exists and because the policy is the official action of a governmental body adopted incident to statute. As an official government policy, we conclude that it was not error for the district court to take notice of the Service Fee Policy.
