Appointing Temporary Guardianship In cases where the custodial parent has a preference as to whom he wishes to assign temporary guardianship, Tennessee law permits that a transfer of guardianship agreement can be signed by both parties. It must notarized by a state-designated notary and filed with the court.
Basically, an unfit parent is someone who generally, whether purposely or not, may be putting the physical safety or emotional needs of the child in danger.
The child, the guardian or any third party can make an application to the court to have the guardianship reversed. Guardianship agreements can only be reversed by the court who have the power to terminate the agreement. The court will only reverse the agreement where doing so is in the best interests of the child.
In the State of Tennessee, a temporary power attorney for childcare endures for no more than six (6) months before having to be renewed. Once the form is executed and notarized, the assigned caregiver will have the authority to make medical and educational decisions on the child's behalf.
Short-Term Temporary Guardianship A temporary guardianship might be an option if: You only need a temporary guardianship for 6 months or less; AND. The parents will sign and notarize a temporary guardianship agreement.

In Tennessee, one or both parents may request a temporary custody order even if there's no emergency situation. This temporary order can be used to continue with or modify the status quo until the court announces a final verdict. Often, parents are able to work out a temporary parenting plan in such situations.
