§ 93-20-424. Attempted transfer of property by the ward.

The interest of a ward in property included in the conservatorship estate is not transferrable or assignable by the ward and is not subject to levy, garnishment, or similar process for claims against the ward unless allowed under Section 93-20-427. If a ward enters into a contract after the right to enter the contract has been delegated to another by the court, the contract is void against the ward and the ward’s property but is enforceable against the person that contracted with the ward. A person other than the conservator that deals with a ward with respect to property included in the conservatorship estate is entitled to protection provided by law of this state other than this chapter.
