Article 27. Appointment of a guardian or trustee for a minor who has parents not deprived of parental rights
On guardianship and trusteeship (LRU-364-son) · Date: 02.01.2014 · In force
A guardian or trustee may be appointed for a minor who has parents not deprived of parental rights if the guardianship and trusteeship body determines that living with the parents does not meet the lawful interests of the minor and that there is an immediate threat to the minorʼs life or health.
During the period a minor is under guardianship or trusteeship, the guardianship and trusteeship body shall, where this does not contradict the minorʼs lawful interests, cooperate with law-enforcement bodies, educational institutions, citizensʼ self-government bodies and non-governmental non-profit organizations on issues of socio-pedagogical rehabilitation of the family and return of the minor to the family.
