Ariz. Rev. Stat. § 14-5204
Current through L. 2024, ch. 154
The court may appoint a guardian for an unmarried minor if all parental rights of custody have been terminated or suspended by circumstances or prior court order. A guardian appointed by will as provided in section 14-5202 whose appointment has not been prevented or nullified under section 14-5203 has priority over any guardian who may be appointed by the court but the court may proceed with an appointment upon a finding that the testamentary guardian has failed to accept the testamentary appointment within thirty days after notice of the guardianship proceeding.
