Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. After the winding up of the affairs of
the guardianship, the guardian shall deliver physical possession of all of the
property of the protected person to the protected person, the personal
representative or the successor guardian, as the case may be, and obtain a
receipt of the delivery of the property.
2. Before the guardian delivers physical
possession of the property of the protected person to the personal
representative and upon sufficient evidence of prior title, the guardian may
petition the court to have the title to the property modified, on a pro rata
basis, to reflect the manner in which title was held before the guardianship
was established so that the property is distributed to the intended beneficiary
or former joint owner of the property.
3. If the guardianship has terminated by
reason of the death of the protected person, the court, by order, may authorize
the guardian to handle the property of the deceased protected person in the
same manner as authorized by NRS 146.070 or 146.080 , if the gross value of the
property, less encumbrances, and less fees, costs and expenses that are
approved by the court, remaining in the hands of the guardian does not exceed
the amount authorized pursuant to NRS
146.070 or 146.080 .
