Article 30. Removal of a guardian or trustee from the performance of duties

If a guardian or trustee fails to perform or improperly performs duties, or abuses his or her rights, a decision on removing the 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.

If a guardian or trustee uses the duties assigned to him or her for mercenary or other base motives, or leaves the person under guardianship or trusteeship without supervision and necessary assistance, the guardianship and trusteeship bodies must take the necessary measures to bring such guardian or trustee to liability in the prescribed manner.

Where the guardian or trustee of a minor, or of a citizen who is legally incapable or with limited legal capacity, is removed 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 removed 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 removal 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.
