The Vermont Petition to Appoint Financial Guardian for a Minor is a legal form that is used to allow the court to appoint a financial guardian for a minor. The purpose of a financial guardian is to manage the minor’s finances and ensure that the minor's financial interests are protected. The petition must be filed in the appropriate court and includes information such as the name, age, and residence of the minor, the name and address of the proposed financial guardian, and the reasons why the appointment is necessary. There are two types of Vermont Petition to Appoint Financial Guardian for a Minor: an emergency petition and a regular petition. An emergency petition is filed when there is an urgent need to appoint a financial guardian for the minor, such as when the minor is facing a financial emergency. A regular petition is filed when there is no immediate need for a financial guardian, and the court must determine if the appointment is in the best interests of the minor.
