§ 29-1-19-17 — Discharge of guardian

In addition to any other provisions of law
relating to judicial restoration and discharge of guardian, a certificate
by the Department showing that a minor has attained majority or that
the incapacitated person has been rated competent by the Department
upon examination in accordance with law shall be prima facie evidence
that the minor has attained majority, or the incapacitated person has
recovered competency. Upon hearing after notice as provided in this
chapter and the determination by the court that the minor has attained
majority or the incapacitated person has recovered competency, an
order shall be entered to that effect, and the guardian shall file a final
account within sixty (60) days of such determination. Upon hearing
after notice to the former protected person and to the Department as in
case of other accounts, upon approval of the final account, and upon
delivery to the protected person of the assets due from the guardian, the
guardian shall be discharged and the guardian's sureties released.
