A public guardian shall be paid the compensation provided for in Chapter 4 of this title pursuant to Code Section 29-10-11 to the extent that the available funds can meet that expense or, at the discretion of the judge, the public guardian's actual expenses may be reimbursed from the funds pursuant to Code Section 29-10-11.
