Inventory and accounts of guardians.

Section 567

SEC. 567. Inventory and accounts of guardians. — Every guardian must return to the court an inventory of the estate of his ward within three months after his appointment and annually thereafter. The court or judge may, upon application made for that purpose by any person interested, compel the guardian to render an account to the court of the estate of his ward. The inventories and accounts so to be returned must be sworn to by the guardian. All the estate of the ward described in the first inventory must be appraised by two appraisers appointed and sworn by the judge. Such inventory, with the appraisement of the property therein described, must be recorded by the clerk of the court in a proper book kept in his office for that purpose. Whenever any other property of the ward is discovered, not included in the inventory of the estate already returned, and whenever any other property has been succeeded to or acquired by any ward, for his benefit, the like proceedings must be had for the return and appraisement thereof within the time provided for the first inventory and return.
