Highlight

The termination of a guardianship in one case does not create a factual presumption that a guardianship in a related case should be terminated.

Under N.D.C.C. § 27-20.1-16(3)(c), a petitioner must show by clear and convincing evidence that the circumstances that led to the guardianship no longer exist.

A juvenile court does not need to find exceptional circumstances to extend a guardianship.

Under N.D.C.C. § 27-20.1-17(1), a juvenile court does not need to use the words “good cause” to make a finding rising to the level of good cause.
