19. Where a person who is represented by the Public Curator or whose property is administered by the Public Curator no longer ordinarily resides in Québec, the Public Curator may apply to the court to be relieved of the office of tutor.
The court shall grant the application only where the Public Curator proves that the person concerned is legally represented in accordance with the laws of his usual place of residence or that the person does not need to be so represented in accordance with those laws. However, the court may grant the application if sufficient effort has been made to provide such proof, but such effort has been in vain.
