Rights of Minor and Obligations of Conservator
- Rights of Minor; Effect on Testamentary Capacity
- In every conservatorship, the minor has the right to:
- A qualified conservator who acts in the best interest of the minor;
- A conservator who is reasonably accessible to the minor;
- Have the minor's property utilized as necessary to provide adequately for the minor's support, care, education, health, and welfare; and
- Individually or through the minor's representative or legal counsel, bring an action relating to the conservatorship.
- The appointment of a conservator is not a determination that an individual who is 14 years of age or older lacks testamentary capacity.
