Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by This action was commenced by James E. McAdam on October 1,
1964, against Thad Hanna, Don Lee Hopkins, Verna Hopkins,
Mitchell Faroh, Ruth Faroh, William Lundy, Don Lee Company, Inc.,
Howard L. Parker Company, Inc., Tom Cunningham and his surety as
guardian, the Fireman's Fund Insurance Company, Inc., to recover
losses suffered in his estate due to the willful mismanagement
and trafficking in his estate by his guardian and his guardian's
attorney and for equitable relief against all the defendants. Tom
Cunningham and the Fireman's Fund Insurance Company, Inc., are
the sole appellants and they have appealed from the district
court's findings of fact, conclusions of law, and judgment
entered against them. The district court's findings of fact are extensively set out
in the record, but to detail them in this opinion would serve no
useful purpose. It is sufficient to say that on August 2, 1963,
Tom Cunningham, who had been a member of the Bar of this state
for over thirteen years, was appointed guardian of the person and
estate of James E. McAdam, an incompetent minor, by the probate
court of Sedgwick County, Kansas. On that same date, Thad Hanna
was appointed by the probate court to act as attorney for the
guardian. On October 1, 1964, the incompetent minor attained his
majority and was ordered restored by the probate court. From
August 2, 1963, until October 1, 1964, when the guardian was
relieved of his duties, several alleged acts of misconduct
occurred which are the subject of this action.
