MI SB1576

Terminates court jurisdiction over a juvenile immediately upon appointment of a guardian under section 19a, rather than requiring an additional review hearing before jurisdiction ends.

Terminates court jurisdiction over a juvenile and the Michigan Children's Institute immediately upon appointment of a guardian under section 19c, rather than requiring an additional review hearing before jurisdiction ends.

Allows guardianships appointed under these sections to continue until the child is emancipated, with the court retaining jurisdiction over the guardianship itself (separate from juvenile jurisdiction) for annual reviews and modifications.

Permits courts to revoke guardianships or appoint successor guardians if continuation is not in the child's best interests, as determined by preponderance of evidence.
