UJS-159 - PETITION TO TERMINATE GUARDIANSHIP & CONSERVATORSHIP ON DEATH OF PROTECTED PERSON. This form is completed by a guardian-conservator to notify the court that the protected person has died and to request termination of both appointments. The sworn petition lists the original appointment date and the date/time of death, cites termination under SDCL 29A-5-507, and requires a certified death certificate (SDCL 29A-1-107(2)).
