Ancillary guardian refers to which person?

• A. Any person entitled to any part or all of an estate
• B. Any person to whom ancillary letters of guardianship, whether of the person, property, or both, of an infant have been issued.
• C. A devise
• D. A creditor

Answer: (B)

Ancillary guardian is the person who holds ancillary letters of guardianship for an infant, covering the guardian’s duties for the infant’s person, property, or both. These letters are issued to authorize someone to act in a secondary guardianship role, typically when guardianship exists across jurisdictions or when managing the infant’s property in another context. This is distinct from being an heir or devisee (who inherits) or a creditor (someone owed money); those roles do not involve guardianship authority.
