Dear Ms. Barber:
20 P.S. 5112 (3) prohibits the court from appointing a
parent as guardian of the estate of a minor.
I would have no objection to an order authorizing the
proceeds being payable to you as counsel for the parties and the
money then being deposited under your direction in a restricted
account of same type. This would eliminate the necessity for a
guardian and without the expense.
Vile truly You~s
