Answer: By visiting your local Superior Court website and going to the self-help section, you can access instructions and forms that you must fill out in order to terminate your guardianship over a minor. If you do not have access to a computer you can also go into the local Superior Court in person where you can also gain access to this same paperwork at their self-help kiosks.
