In re Guardianship of W.L.

Summary

The court held that a guardianship is no longer necessary when a fit parent who previously consented to it revokes consent, because the parent is presumed to act in the child's best interest. It further held that the circuit court clearly erred in finding David unfit and lacked authority to retroactively modify its earlier order after the applicable period had expired. The judgment was reversed and remanded for termination of the guardianship and placement of W.L. in David's custody.
