Sec. 719. RELEASE OF LIEN BEFORE GUARDIANSHIP FULLY ADMINISTERED    


Latest version.
  • If a personal surety who has given a lien on specific real property as security applies to the court to have the lien released, the court shall order the release requested if the court is satisfied that the bond is sufficient without the lien on the property or if sufficient other real or personal property of the surety is substituted on the same terms and conditions required for the lien that is to be released. If the personal surety who requests the release of the lien does not offer a lien on other real or personal property and if the court is not satisfied that the bond is sufficient without the substitution of other property, the court shall order the guardian to appear and give a new bond.
