§ 1608. Guardians ad litem. 1. On the return day of the motion made
pursuant to the provisions of either section 1601 or section 1602 the
court shall appoint a guardian ad litem for any minor or other person
under disability who is a party to the proceeding and is not represented
by a duly acting guardian, committee or conservator.
2. On the return day of the motion made pursuant to the provisions of
either section 1601 or section 1602, if it appears that a future
interest in the affected real property has been so limited that as yet
there are neither certain nor presumptive owners thereof in being or
ascertained, the court shall appoint a guardian ad litem to represent
and to protect the possible interests of the person or persons who
eventually may become entitled to such real property, or to an interest
therein, under such limitation. The granting of an application is not
necessarily precluded by the fact that as yet no person other than the
applicant is in being, who can acquire a beneficial or possessory
interest in the affected real property.
