Sec. 17. In addition to any other provisions of law relating to judicial restoration and discharge of guardian, a certificate by the Department showing that a minor has attained majority or that the incapacitated person has been rated competent by the Department upon examination in accordance with law shall be prima facie evidence that the minor has attained majority, or the incapacitated person has recovered competency. Upon hearing after notice as provided in this chapter and the determination by the court that the minor has attained majority or the incapacitated person has recovered competency, an order shall be entered to that effect, and the guardian shall file a final account within sixty (60) days of such determination. Upon hearing after notice to the former protected person and to the Department as in case of other accounts, upon approval of the final account, and upon delivery to the protected person of the assets due from the guardian, the guardian shall be discharged and the guardian's sureties released.
