Difference between conservatorship and guardianship In many states, a guardianship gives a person control over the personal, day-to-day decisions of a ward, while a conservatorship provides the authority to control another person's financial decisions.

Ask the Court to Remove and Replace the Guardian However, someone must file all of the required paperwork to ask to serve as the new guardian going forward. It will be up to the judge to decide if there is a legal basis to remove the guardian and if so, to appoint a new guardian to take over.

If all of the above apply, you may be able to avoid a court order and get a short-term guardianship instead. A short-term guardianship takes effect the day that all required parties sign the document, and automatically expires six months after that date if no sooner date is given.

An adult guardianship can end if the protected person regains competency, passes away, or the court determines they no longer need a guardian after a petition to terminate is filed. The court may require medical evaluations to determine competency.

As guardian of the person, you have a double duty?both to the person you are serving, and to the court. You will be responsible for deciding where they will live, food, clothing, shelter, medical care, transportation, and education.

You will need to complete a Petition to Terminate Guardianship and a Citation. You may also need to provide other documents depending on your situation. The Petition is the document that tells the judge why you think the guardianship is no longer needed.
