9. Court
having jurisdiction to entertain application
.- (1) If the application is with respect
to the guardianship of the person of the minor,
it shall be made to the District Court having
jurisdiction in the place where the minor ordinarily
resides.
(2) If the application is
with respect to the guardianship of the property
of the minor, it may be made either to the District
Court having jurisdiction in the place where
the minor ordinarily resides, or to a District
Court having jurisdiction in a place where he
has property.
(3) If an application with
respect to the guardianship of the property
of a minor is made to a District Court other
than that having jurisdiction in the place where
the minor ordinarily resides, the court may
return the application if in its opinion the
application would be disposed of more justly
or conveniently by any other District Court
having jurisdiction.
