      History: P.A. 86-323 applied provisions specifically to "plenary" guardians; Sec. 45-335 transferred to Sec. 45a-683 in 1991; P.A. 03-51 substituted "person with mental retardation" for "mentally retarded person"; (Revisor's note: In 2005, a reference to Sec. 45a-668 was changed editorially by the Revisors to Sec. 45a-669 to reflect the repeal of Sec. 45a-668 by P.A. 04-54).
