RS 29:367

§367. Discharge of tutor or curator When a minor ward for whom a tutor has been appointed shall have attained the age of majority and has not been found incompetent, when any incompetent veteran or helpless child of a living or deceased veteran has been rated competent by the veterans administration, and when any other incompetent ward has been found on investigation made by the veterans administration to be capable of receiving and administering veterans administration benefits, a certificate of the administrator or his duly authorized representative to that effect shall be prima facie evidence that a tutor or curator is no longer required. The court, upon the tutor or curator filing satisfactory final account, may discharge such tutor or curator upon a petition filed for that purpose. Nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to prevent a ward from filing a petition for the discharge of his tutor or curator on the ground that the ward has been emancipated or has attained his majority or is competent, or the court from acting on its own motion in such cases. Amended by Acts 1956, No. 557, §1.
