Revocation of guardianship

A. Any person, including a child who has reached the age of fourteen, may move for revocation of a guardianship created pursuant to the Kinship Guardianship Act. The person requesting revocation shall attach to the motion a transition plan proposed to facilitate the reintegration of the child into the home of a parent or a new guardian. A transition plan shall take into consideration the child's age, development and any bond with the guardian. B. If the court finds that a preponderance of the evidence proves a change in circumstances and the revocation is in the best interests of the child, it shall grant the motion and: (1) adopt a transition plan proposed by a party or the guardian ad litem; (2) propose and adopt its own transition plan; or (3) order the parties to develop a transition plan by consensus if they will agree to do so.
