Section 79.31. Discharge of guardian  


Latest version.
  • (a) When a minor ward for whom a guardian has been appointed under the
      provisions  of  this  article  or  other  laws  of this state shall have
      attained his or her majority, and  if  incompetent,  shall  be  declared
      competent  by the administration and the court, and when any incompetent
      ward, not a minor, shall be declared competent  by  said  administration
      and  the court, the guardian shall upon making a satisfactory accounting
      be discharged upon a petition filed for that purpose. Provided, however,
      if a guardian has received other property in addition  to  the  benefits
      from  the administration and income from such benefits, his discharge as
      to such property shall, in the case of an incompetent ward, be  governed
      by the laws which govern the discharge of a committee of an incompetent,
      and  in  the  case  of  an  infant  ward,  by  the laws which govern the
      discharge of a guardian of an infant.
