Miss. Code Ann. § 93-20-318: Termination or modification of guardianship for adult.

(1) Upon petition and for good cause shown, the court may hold a hearing to consider whether termination of the guardianship exists on the ground that a basis for appointment under Section 93-20-301 does not exist or termination would be in the best interest of the adult or for other good cause; or modification of the guardianship exists on the ground that the extent of protection or assistance granted is not appropriate or for other good cause.

(2) Notice of a petition under this section must be given to the ward, the guardian, and any other person the court determines.

(3) On presentation of prima facie evidence for termination of a guardianship for an adult, the court shall order termination unless it is proven that a basis for appointment of a guardian under Section 93-20-301 exists.

(4) The court shall modify the powers granted to a guardian for an adult if the powers are excessive or inadequate due to a change in the abilities or limitations of the adult, the adult’s supports, or other circumstances.

(5) Unless the court otherwise orders for good cause shown, before terminating or modifying a guardianship for an adult, the court shall follow the same procedures to safeguard the rights of the adult which apply to a petition for guardianship.

(6) A ward who seeks to terminate or modify the terms of the guardianship has the right to choose an attorney for representation in the matter. The court shall award reasonable attorney’s fees to the attorney for the adult as provided in Section 93-20-118.
