Article 29. Release of a guardian or trustee from the performance of duties

A guardian or trustee may be released from the performance of duties upon his or her application.

A trustee must be released from the performance of duties at the request of the person under trusteeship.

The decision to release a guardian or trustee from the performance of duties shall be adopted by the district or city khokim on the basis of a motion from the guardianship and trusteeship body.

Where the guardian or trustee of a minor, or of a citizen who is legally incapable or with limited legal capacity, is released from the performance of duties, another guardian or trustee shall be appointed to the person under guardianship or trusteeship, or another form of placement shall be determined, in the manner prescribed by law, taking into account that personʼs wishes.

Where the trustee of an adult legally capable citizen who needed trusteeship due to health reasons is released from the performance of duties, another person shall be appointed as trustee with the consent of the person under trusteeship.

A person who has performed the duties of a guardian or trustee must, no later than three working days from the day he or she becomes aware of the release from the performance of duties, submit to the guardianship and trusteeship body a report on the performance of duties in the manner prescribed by law.
