Petition for Removal to Jurisdiction Where Minor Resides; Appointment of Guardian Ad Litem; Bond; Authority; Liability of Surety; Retention of Jurisdiction by Initial Court

The conservator shall file with the court of the county to which the conservatorship is to be removed certified copies of all the records pertaining to the conservatorship.   Following removal of a conservatorship to another county in this state, the court to which the conservatorship is removed shall have the same jurisdiction over the conservator as if the conservator had been first appointed in that county, and every case growing out of or affecting the conservatorship shall be heard and tried only in the county to which the conservatorship has been removed.   The sureties on the conservator's first bond shall be liable only for misconduct of the conservator up until the giving of new bond and security. The sureties on the new bond shall be liable for both past and future misconduct of the conservator.

  The court may grant a petition for receipt and acceptance of a foreign conservatorship provided the court finds that:   The conservator is presently in good standing with the foreign court; and   The transfer of the conservatorship from the foreign jurisdiction is in the best interest of the minor.     The court may require the conservator to file an inventory of the minor's property at the time of the transfer from the foreign jurisdiction.   Subject to subsection (d) of this Code section, at all times following the entry of the order accepting the guardianship, the laws of the State of Georgia shall apply to the conservatorship.   In order to coordinate efforts with the foreign court to facilitate the orderly transfer of the conservatorship, the court is authorized to:   Delay the effective date of the receipt and acceptance for a reasonable period of time;   Make the receipt and acceptance contingent upon the release of the conservatorship or the termination of the conservatorship and the discharge of the conservator in the foreign jurisdiction;   Recognize concurrent jurisdiction over the conservatorship for a reasonable period of time to permit the foreign court to release the conservatorship or to terminate the conservatorship and discharge the conservator in the foreign jurisdiction; or   Make other arrangements the court deems necessary to effectuate the receipt and acceptance of the conservatorship.     The denial of a petition for receipt and acceptance of the foreign conservatorship does not affect the right of a conservator appointed by a foreign court of competent jurisdiction to petition for conservatorship under Code Section 29-3-8.
