Idaho Code § 15-5-210

Termination of appointment of guardian — General

Applied in 2 court decisions — leading case Irwin v. Celeya (1993)

Most recently applied in In Re Guardianship of Copenhaver (December 1993)

I.C., § 15-5 -210, as added by 1971, ch. 111, § 1, p. 233; am. 2016, ch. 148, § 1, p. 416.

A guardian’s authority and responsibility terminates upon the death, resignation or removal of the guardian, termination of the guardianship or upon the minor’s death, adoption, marriage or attainment of majority, but termination does not affect his liability for prior acts, nor his obligation to account for funds and assets of his ward. Resignation of a guardian without the appointment of a successor guardian does not terminate the guardianship until it has been approved by the court. A testamentary appointment under an informally probated will terminates if the will is later denied probate in a formal proceeding.
