Section 568

SEC. 568. Settlement of guardian's accounts. — The guardian must upon the expiration of a year, from the time of his appointment, and as often thereafter as may be required, present his account to the court for settlement and allowance. In the settlement of the account, the guardian shall be allowed the amount of his reasonable expenses incurred in the execution of his trust and also such compensation for his services as the court, in which his accounts are settled, deems just and reasonable; but not exceeding two dollars per day for the time actually spent, and a commission upon all disbursements made by him, which commission shall be the same as that in this Code provided for disbursements made by executors and administrators. But in cases of exceptional importance, a larger compensation may be allowed for the services of the guardian.
