2111.38 Bond and duties.

2111.38 Bond and duties.

The resident guardian of a nonresident ward shall give bond and be bound and controlled by all the statutes of Ohio as though he were a guardian of a ward resident in this state, and shall have all of the authority of a guardian of a resident ward including the authority to lease or sell real estate belonging to the ward.

Unless removed by the probate court, a resident guardian of a nonresident minor shall hold his appointment until such minor dies or arrives at the age of majority, whether or not such minor is over fourteen years of age at the time of appointment. A resident guardian of any other nonresident ward shall hold his appointment until the death of the ward or until the court is satisfied that the necessity for the guardianship no longer exists.

All moneys due to such nonresident ward while such resident guardianship continues shall be paid over to his foreign guardian so far as necessary or proper for the ward’s support and maintenance. If the ward dies, such moneys shall be paid to his ancillary administrator or other legal representative, provided that the court which appointed such resident guardian has satisfactory proof, as provided by section 2111.39 of the Revised Code, of the authority of such foreign guardian, administrator, or other legal representative to receive the moneys or estates of such nonresident ward, that the security given by such foreign guardian, administrator, or other legal representative is sufficient to protect such ward’s interest or estate, and provided such court deems it best for him or his estate.
