§ 3224. Use of custodial property
(a) A custodian may deliver or pay to the minor or expend for the minor’s benefit so much
of the custodial property as the custodian considers advisable for the use and benefit
of the minor, without court order and without regard to:
(1) the duty or ability of the custodian personally or of any other person to support
the minor; or
(2) any other income or property of the minor that may be applicable or available for
that purpose.
(b) On petition of an interested person or the minor if the minor has attained 14 years
of age, the court may order the custodian to deliver or pay to the minor or expend
for the minor’s benefit so much of the custodial property as the court considers advisable
for the use and benefit of the minor.
(c) A delivery, payment, or expenditure under this section is in addition to, not in substitution
for, and does not affect any obligation of a person to support the minor. (Added 2015, No. 7, § 1.)
