(1) A parent, spouse, or child of a partially disabled or disabled person who has been

appointed as limited guardian, guardian, limited conservator, or conservator of that

person may, by will, nominate an individual to succeed in that capacity upon the

testator's death. Such nomination shall be reviewed by the court pursuant to KRS

coguardians of that person and one (1) of the coguardians dies, the survivor shall

become the successor guardian without any additional action by the court.
