(2) a statement describing how the distributions during the accounting period conformed to the restrictions imposed by the court; and

Haw. Prob. R. 116

Amended April 28, 2006, effective 7/1/2006.

COMMENTARY:

This rule will make it easier for the court to supervise conservatorships, by placing a burden on the conservator to review and specifically set forth the restrictions on the conservator and to explain to the court just how the conservator's actions have conformed to court order.
