Chapter 159A - Guardianship of Minors
NRS 159A.192 - Termination of temporary guardianship.

1. If a temporary guardianship is terminated and a petition for a general guardianship has not been filed:
(a) The temporary guardian shall immediately turn over all of the protected minor’s property to the protected minor; or
(b) If the temporary guardian is awaiting certification from the appropriate authority acknowledging that the guardian has no further liability for taxes on the estate, the temporary guardian shall seek approval from the court to maintain possession of all or a portion of the protected minor’s property.
2. If a temporary guardianship is terminated and a petition for general guardianship has been filed, the temporary guardian of the estate may:
(a) Continue possessing the protected minor’s property; and
(b) Perform the duties of guardian for not more than 90 days after the temporary guardianship is terminated or until the court appoints another temporary or general guardian.
3. If the death of a protected minor causes the termination of a temporary guardianship before the hearing on a general guardianship:
(a) The temporary guardian of the estate may:
(1) Continue possessing the protected minor’s property; and
(2) Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, perform the duties of guardian for not more than 90 days after the date of the termination of the temporary guardianship or until the court appoints a personal representative of the estate, if any. If the temporary guardian is awaiting certification from the appropriate authority acknowledging that the guardian has no further liability for taxes on the estate and it will take longer than 90 days after the date of the termination of the temporary guardianship to receive such certification, the temporary guardian must seek approval from the court to maintain possession of all or a portion of the protected minor’s property until certification is received.
(b) If no personal representative has been appointed pursuant to chapter 138 or 139 of NRS, the temporary guardian shall pay all of the final expenses and outstanding debts of the protected minor to the extent possible using the assets in the possession of the temporary guardian.
