Terms Used In Alabama Code 26-8-22

  • Guardian: A person legally empowered and charged with the duty of taking care of and managing the property of another person who because of age, intellect, or health, is incapable of managing his (her) own affairs.

If, on the hearing, the court is satisfied that the removal will advance the interests of the minor or ward, an order authorizing it shall be made and entered; otherwise, the application shall be dismissed and the guardian or conservator or the next friend, as the application may be made by the one or the other, must be taxed with the costs.
