Text

When a relative with whom a child is living is found by the department to be incapable of taking care of the child's money, payment may be made only to a legally appointed guardian or conservator and, notwithstanding Title 18‑C, Article 5, Part 4 , in the matter of infirmities of age or physical disability to manage the child's estate with prudence and understanding, the Probate Court may appoint any suitable person as a conservator. [PL 2017, c. 402, Pt. C, §58 (AMD); PL 2019, c. 417, Pt. B, §14 (AFF).]
