Civil Act — Article 949-2 (Exercise of authority where adult ward has multiple guardians)

민법 제949조의2

(1) The Family Court may designate ex officio multiple adult guardians to exercise their authority jointly or severally by sharing it by the type of affairs.

(2) The Family Court may modify or revoke ex officio the designation made under paragraph (1).

(3) Where multiple adult guardians need to jointly exercise their authority, if any adult guardian fails to cooperate in the exercise of required authority, such as representation of a juristic act, despite that the interest of the person under adult guardianship is likely to be infringed upon, the Family Court may make an adjudication substituting for the declaration of intention of the relevant adult guardian, upon the application of the adult ward, a guardian under adult guardianship, the supervisor of guardianship or an interested party.[This Article Added on Mar. 7, 2011]
