Ward in Europe
Definition of Ward
A ward is an infant who is under the care of a guardian (q.v.). If an action, suit or other proceeding relative to an infant’s estate or person, and for his benefit, be instituted in the Chancery Division, the infant immediately becomes a ward of Court, although its father or testamentary guardian may be living. A ward of Court cannot be taken out of the jurisdiction of the Court, nor can any change be made in his or her position in life, without leave of the Court
