During the British regime the law of guardianship was developed by the courts. It came to be established that the father is the natural guardian of the children and after his death, mother is the natural guardian of the children and none else can be the natural guardian of minor children.

The ward retains all legal and civil rights except those that the court has expressly limited or specifically granted to the guardian. The ward has the right to ask the court to dismiss the guardian or modify the guardianship order.

If the court appoints a temporary guardian during the guardianship case, it will expire when the court appoints a regular (full or partial) guardian, or when the petition for appointment of a guardian is dismissed.

The purpose of this report is to tell the court why your service as guardian is ending and what has happened to the protected person and the protected person's assets since you filed your last report.

The guardian must make sure the ward receives health care (including mental health care) and protection. The guardian should arrange for any physical and mental examinations necessary to determine the ward's medical and mental health treatment needs. This includes dental, hearing and eye exams.

316. General powers and duties of guardian. (a) A guardian shall diligently and in good faith carry out the specific duties and powers assigned by the court.
