A guardian's or conservator's appointment terminates upon the death, resignation or removal of the guardian or conservator or upon the termination of the guardianship or conservatorship. A termination of an appointment does not affect the liability of a guardian or conservator for prior acts or the responsibility of a conservator to account for the minor's or protected person's estate.
