In the Netherlands, a parent can appoint one or two people to act as guardian for a minor child after the parent’s death either by registering the choice in the Parental Authority Register (gezagsregister<\/em>) or by including the appointment in a will made through a civil-law notary. If one parent dies while both parents have parental authority, the surviving parent normally continues with sole parental authority automatically, so the appointed guardian does not replace that parent. If no parent with authority remains and there is no effective guardian appointment, the designated guardian refuses, or another legal issue arises, the court may need to determine who will exercise guardianship.<\/p>
