Letters Of Guardianship Of The Property {5.903(b)}

RULE 5.903(b). LETTERS OF GUARDIANSHIP OF THE PERSON. This is an official probate court form issued by a Florida Circuit Court to confirm the appointment and authority of a guardian over the property and financial affairs of an incapacitated person. After the guardian has taken the required oath and satisfied all statutory prerequisites, the court issues these letters to formally authorize the guardian to act on the ward’s behalf. The form identifies the guardian, the ward, the court, and the scope of powers granted, which may include contracting, managing property, applying for government benefits, initiating or defending lawsuits, and making permitted dispositions of property. The letters also note statutory limitations under Florida guardianship law and define whether the appointment is plenary or limited. www.FormsWorkflow.com
