Utah State Law Library

The Utah State Courts' website now offers three short narrated presentations about guardianship of a minor proceedings. The presentations are divided into these broad topics:

• Guardianship of a Minor Basics, which discusses common terms used in this type of case and alternatives to guardianship (5.5 minutes)
  
• District Court Procedures, which discusses the documents needed to start the process and what happens at the required hearing (8 minutes)
  
• Responsibilities, Termination, and Modification, which discusses a guardian's duties and ways to end or change a guardianship appointment (5 minutes)

The State Law Library also has an 83-minute DVD of our Guardianship of a Minor Basics class, which you can watch in the library or purchase. See our Library Classes page for more information.

You can use the Online Court Assistance Program (OCAP) to generate the papwerwork to start a minor guardianship case.
