Full text of Ohio Ohio Revised Code § 2111.38, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 2111.38.
The resident guardian of a nonresident ward shall give bond and be bound and controlled
by all the statutes of this state as though the resident guardian were a guardian
of a ward resident in this state, and shall have all of the authority of a guardian
of a resident ward including the authority to lease or sell real property belonging
to the ward. Unless removed by the probate court, a resident guardian of a nonresident minor shall
hold that appointment until the minor dies or arrives at the age of majority, whether
or not the minor is over fourteen years of age at the time of appointment. A resident guardian of any other nonresident ward shall hold that appointment until
the death of the ward or until the court is satisfied that the necessity for the guardianship
no longer exists. All moneys due to the nonresident ward while the resident guardianship continues shall
be paid over to the ward's foreign guardian so far as necessary or proper for the
ward's support and maintenance. If the ward dies, the moneys shall be paid to the ward's ancillary administrator
or other legal representative, provided that the court that appointed the resident
guardian has satisfactory proof, as provided by section 2111.39 of the Revised Code , of the authority of the foreign guardian, administrator, or other legal representative
to receive the moneys or properties of the nonresident ward, that the security given
by the foreign guardian, administrator, or other legal representative is sufficient
to protect the ward's interest or estate, and that the court considers it best for
the ward or the ward's estate.
