The motion must include the reasons for needing a guardian ad item, the qualifications of the proposed guardian, and the proposed scope of the guardian's authority. There are three different types of Vermont Motion for Appointment of Guardian Ad Item: (1) Motion for Appointment of Guardian Ad Item for a Minor Child; (2) Motion for Appointment of Guardian Ad Item for an Adult; and (3) Motion for Appointment of Guardian Ad Item for a Minor’s Property. All three motions must be accompanied by a proposed order of appointment that details the guardian’s duties and authority and a proposed order of fee.
