§ 81.25 Filing of bond by guardian.    (a)  Before  the  guardian,  or  special guardian appointed under this  article, or a trustee of a  trust  created  pursuant  to  this  article,  enters upon the execution of his or her duties, the court may require or  dispense with the filing of a bond.    (b) The court may require or dispense with the filing of a bond by the  temporary  guardian.  If  the  temporary  guardian is required to file a  bond, such bond must be filed within ten days after the issuance of  the  temporary guardian's commission.    (c)  If  the  value  of  the estate of the person for whom a guardian,  special guardian, temporary guardian, or  trustee  is  appointed  is  so  great  or  for other sufficient reason the court deems it inexpedient to  require security in the full amount prescribed by law it may direct that  all or part of the assets of the estate  be  delivered  subject  to  the  further  order  of  the  court  to the county treasurer, or other proper  fiscal officer, the clerk of the court or a trust company, bank or  safe  deposit  company  or otherwise restrict the authority of the guardian or  trustee. The court may thereupon fix the amount of the bond taking  into  consideration  the value of the remainder only of the estate. The assets  so deposited shall not be withdrawn from the custody of  the  depositary  and  no  person  other  than the proper fiscal officer of such county or  depository shall receive or collect any principal  or  income  or  other  benefits derived from such assets without order of the court.    (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, any community  guardian  program operating pursuant to the provisions of title three of  article nine-B  of  the  social  services  law,  appointed  as  guardian  pursuant  to  subdivision (a) of section 81.19 of this article, may file  with the clerk of the court before the thirty-first day  of  January  of  each  year,  a  consolidated undertaking up to the amount of one million  five hundred thousand dollars, in lieu of filing individual undertakings  for each incapacitated  person  for  whom  it  serves  as  guardian,  as  required  by  subdivision  (a)  of  this  section.  To the extent of the  aggregate value of such consolidated undertaking, the community guardian  program will certify to the clerk of the court faithful discharge of the  trust imposed upon it, obey all directions of the court in regard to the  trust, and make and render a true account of all properties received  by  it  and the application thereof and of its acts in the administration of  its trust whenever so required to do by the court. At such time  as  the  aggregate amount of the individual bonds, fixed by the court pursuant to  subdivision  (a)  of  this  section  for  persons for whom the community  guardian program is appointed guardian, shall  exceed  the  consolidated  bond  filed  by such program, the program shall before entering upon the  execution of its duties, file with the clerk  of  the  court  individual  undertakings, in the amounts fixed by the court, that it will faithfully  discharge the trust imposed upon it.    (e)  If  the  court  requires  the  filing  of a bond, the guardian or  special or temporary guardian, or trustee, appointed under this  article  shall  file  with  the  clerk  of  the  court by which such guardian was  appointed a bond that he or she will  faithfully  discharge  the  powers  granted  by  the court to the guardian or special or temporary guardian,  or trustee, obey all directions of the court in regard  to  the  powers,  and  make and render a true account of all properties received by him or  her and the application thereof and a true report of his or her acts  in  the  administration  of his or her powers, whenever so required to do by  the court. The amount of the bond shall be fixed by the  court.  If  the  guardian,   special   or   temporary   guardian,  or  trustee,  receives  after-acquired property not covered by the bond, such guardian,  specialor   temporary   guardian,  or  trustee,  shall  immediately  have  such  acquisition approved by the court and file a further bond.
