A temporary guardian is an individual that is appointed to care for a child by a probate court when the parents or other guardians have given up their parental rights for some reason. A temporary guardianship cannot occur unless the parents have relinquished their parental rights or the court has determined that a temporary guardian is necessary. Only the probate court in the county where the minor lives has the authority to appoint a temporary guardian. A temporary guardianship means that the appointed individual will care for and make decisions on behalf of the child.
