Maintenance and support of ward - Credit on settlement -
Official statutory text
Payment of third person furnishing necessaries on guardian's
refusal.
When a guardian has advanced for the necessary maintenance,
support and education of his ward, an amount not disproportionate to
the value of the estate or condition of life of the ward and the
same is made to appear to the satisfaction of the court, by proper
supporting documents and proofs, the guardian must be allowed credit
therefor in his settlement. Whenever a guardian fails, neglects, or
refuses to furnish suitable and necessary maintenance, support or
education for his ward, the court may order the guardian to do so
and enforce such order by proper process. Whenever any third
person, at the request of the ward, supplies a ward with such
suitable and necessary maintenance, support or education which is
shown to have been done after refusal or neglect of the guardian to
supply the same, the court may direct the guardian to pay therefor
out of the estate of the ward, and may enforce such payment by due
process.
