RS 29:354 - Tutor or curator Except as hereinafter provided in this Part, it shall be unlawful for any person to accept appointment as tutor or curator of any ward if such proposed tutor or curator shall at that time be acting as tutor or curator for as many as five wards. In any case, upon presentation of a petition by an attorney of the veterans administration or other interested person, under this Section, alleging that a tutor or curator is acting in a fiduciary capacity for more than five wards and requesting his discharge for that reason, the court, upon proof substantiating the petition, shall require a final accounting forthwith from such tutor or curator and shall discharge such tutor or curator in the said case. The limitations of this Section shall not apply where the tutor or curator is a bank or trust company acting for the wards' estates only. An individual may be tutor or curator of more than five wards if they are all members of the same family.
