1-2-14. DISCHARGE OF GUARDIAN.

Every guardian appointed by this chapter shall serve until discharged by the Court.  A guardian of a minor not otherwise incompetent or the minor himself may petition the Court within one year after the date the minor reaches the age of majority to have the guardian discharged and the estate turned over to the minor.  The Court may grant such discharge ex parte upon the receipt of sufficient competent evidence that the minor has reached the age of majority unless it appears to the Court that the minor is otherwise incompetent, in which case the Court will order a hearing with notice to make a determination of competency.  Any person who has had guardian appointed for reasons of incompetency or such guardian or a relative of such incompetent person may petition the Court for a determination of this restoration to competency and for discharge of the guardian.  Upon receipt of such petition, the Court shall order notice of hearing to be given by mailing or otherwise, and after such notice, the Court shall receive evidence as to the current status of the ward’s competency.  If it be found that the ward is of sound mind and capable of taking care of himself and his property, the guardianship shall be terminated.  If it be found that the ward is of sound mind and capable of taking care of himself and his property, the guardianship shall be terminated.  If the Court finds otherwise, the guardianship shall be continued.
