DQ2 Topic 2: Appointing a Guardian

Now that you have read about appointing guardians, find the guardianship laws that relate to guardianship of minor children in your state’s statutes. Read your state’s statutes, and then submit a post that summarizes your state’s rules and procedures for appointment of a guardian for minor children. Be sure to include a citation to your state’s statute in proper Bluebook form. Also, respond to your classmates’ postings.

Use the following article to begin your research:

Review the article “7 Things to Consider When Naming a Guardian for Your Minor Children.”

Garber, J. (2019, Nov. 20). 7 things to consider when naming a guardian for your minor children. https://www.thebalance.com/how-to-choose-a-guardian-for-your-minor-children-3505435

Once you have read about your state’s statutes, you may retrieve the actual statute from Westlaw.
