2643
. (a) Except as provided in Section 2643.1, on petition by the
guardian or conservator of the person or estate, or both, the court
may by order authorize periodic payments on account to any one or
more of the following persons for the services rendered by that
person during the period covered by each payment:
(1) The guardian of the person.
(2) The guardian of the estate.
(3) The conservator of the person.
(4) The conservator of the estate.
(5) The attorney for the guardian or conservator of the person or
estate, or both.
(b) Notice of the hearing on the petition shall be given for the
period and in the manner provided in Chapter 3 (commencing with
Section 1460) of Part 1.
(c) The petition shall describe the services to be rendered on a
periodic basis and the reason why authority to make periodic payments
is requested. In fixing the amount of the periodic payment, the
court shall take into account the services to be rendered on a
periodic basis and the reasonable value of those services. The
guardian or conservator of the estate may make the periodic payments
authorized by the order only if the services described in the
petition are actually rendered. The payments made pursuant to the
order are subject to review by the court upon the next succeeding
account of the guardian or conservator of the estate to determine
that the services were actually rendered and that the amount paid on
account was not unreasonable, and the court shall make an appropriate
order if the court determines that the amount paid on account was
either excessive or inadequate in view of the services actually
rendered.
