The Court Keeps Track of the Guardian and the Minor

 

How does the court keep track of the guardian and the minor?

There are two ways.

  1. The judge can put an order in the guardianship decree saying that the guardian must notify the court in writing of changes of address or telephone number.  There is a place on page two of the decree form where the judge checks a box ordering the guardian to report address and telephone number changes within 30 days.
  2. Once a year the guardian of the minor must file a report to the court concerning the minor's condition.   The court has a 3 page annual report form for the guardian to fill out.
