The court may, at any time, terminate the appointment of a public guardian as an individual guardian of a person or of an estate upon petition by the protected person, the public guardian, any interested person or upon the court’s own motion if:
1. It appears that the services of the public guardian are no longer necessary; or
2. After exercising due diligence, the public guardian is unable to identify a source to pay for the care of the protected person and, as a consequence, continuation of the guardianship would confer no benefit upon the protected person.
