This document is typically used when a minor is in need of a temporary guardian to care for them in the case of an emergency such as the death of their parent or other sudden event. The Vermont Affidavit must be completed and signed by the parent or existing guardian of the minor and must include relevant information such as the minor’s name, date of birth, and the name of the proposed temporary guardian. The affidavit must also include detailed information about the emergency situation and why the proposed temporary guardian is the best choice for the minor. There are two types of Vermont Affidavit In Support of Motion For Emergency Temporary Guardian: the “care” affidavit and the “custody” affidavit.
