Superseded in part. This rule no longer governs guardianship of minors. A.M. No. 03-02-05-SC, the Rule on Guardianship of Minors (effective May 1, 2003), amends Rules 92 to 97 of the Rules of Court in that respect; its Section 27 provides that guardianship of incompetents who are not minors shall continue to be governed by the Rules of Court. Read the text below as the rule for guardianship of incompetents; where the ward is a minor, the 2003 Rule governs.
The sections of Rule 95 of the Rules of Court (Special Proceedings, Rules 72–109), each reproduced verbatim and verified word-for-word against four independently published renderings of the Rules of Court — only text on which at least two independent publishers agree is shown.
- Section 1. Petition of guardian for leave to sell or encumber estate
- Section 2. Order to show cause thereupon
- Section 3. Hearing on return of order; Costs
- Section 4. Contents of order for sale or encumbrance, and how long effective; Bond
- Section 5. Court may order investment of proceeds and direct management of estate
