36 XVII 525/14•Prior power of attorney and appointment of a guardian
36 XVII 525/14Court of First InstanceSep 22, 2016Family lawPartially granted
Extracted by Omnilex
Bonn District Court expanded the responsibilities of guardian K Q to cover residence, healthcare, mail, financial matters, representation before public and social insurance authorities, housing, and revocation of a notarial power of attorney dated 8 March 2016. It also extended the existing guardianship and directed that its termination or further extension be reconsidered by 21 September 2023 at the latest. The requested change of guardian was refused. The court stated that a power of attorney granted while the person lacked capacity does not bar appointment of a guardian. In selecting a guardian, the affected person's wishes matter when founded on independent and enduring will formation; otherwise the person's welfare controls.
BGB § 1896(2), sentence 2; § 104 no. 2; § 1897(4), sentence 1; a power of attorney granted before or during a period of incapacity does not, by itself, preclude appointment of a guardian. In choosing a guardian, the affected person's wishes must be taken into account where they result from independent and enduring will formation. If there are doubts as to that basis, the affected person's welfare is decisive in the selection. The rule distinguishes an autonomous and lasting preference from a wish whose reliability as an expression of the person's own will is uncertain.
