14-5313. Proceedings subsequent to
appointment; venue
A. The court at the place where the ward resides has concurrent jurisdiction with
the court that appointed the guardian or in which acceptance of a parental or spousal
appointment was filed, over resignation, removal, accounting and other proceedings
relating to the guardianship including proceedings to limit the authority previously
conferred on a guardian or to remove limitations previously imposed.
B. If the court located at the place where the ward resides is not the court in
which acceptance of appointment is filed, the court in which proceedings subsequent to
appointment are commenced shall in all appropriate cases notify the other court, in this
or another state, and after consultation with that court shall determine whether to
retain jurisdiction or transfer the proceedings to the other court, whichever may be in
the best interests of the ward. A copy of any order accepting a resignation, removing a
guardian or altering authority shall be sent to the court in which acceptance of
appointment is filed.
