§ 3117. Discharge of guardian and release of sureties
In addition to other provisions of law relating to judicial restoration and discharge
of guardian, a certificate by the Veterans’ Administration showing that a minor ward
has attained majority, or that an incompetent ward has been rated competent by the
Veterans’ Administration, upon examination in accordance with law, shall be prima
facie evidence that the ward has attained majority, or has recovered his or her competency.
Upon hearing after notice as provided by this chapter and the determination by the
court that the ward has attained majority or has recovered his or her competency,
an order shall be entered to that effect, and the guardian shall file a final account.
Upon hearing after notice to the former ward and to the Veterans’ Administration,
as in case of other accounts, upon approval of the final account, and upon delivery
to the ward of the assets due him or her from the guardian, the guardian shall be
discharged and his or her sureties released.
