§ 3-6-109 — Guardian to be fit and proper person; bond required

Before making appointment under the provisions of this act the
court shall be satisfied that the guardian whose appointment is
sought is a fit and proper person to be appointed. Upon the
appointment being made the guardian shall execute and file a
bond to be approved by the court in an amount not less than the
sum then due and estimated to become payable during the ensuing
year. The said bond shall be in the form and be conditioned as
required of guardians appointed under the guardianship laws of
this state. The court shall have power from time to time to
require the guardian to file an additional bond. Where a bond is
tendered by a guardian with personal sureties, such sureties
shall file with the court a certificate under oath which shall
describe the property owned, both real and personal, and that
they are each worth the sum named in the bond as the penalty
thereof over and above all their debts and liabilities and
exclusive of property exempt from execution.
