I doubt it since it's just temporary guardianship. You would need to ask someone who deals with adoptions or whoever granted the guardianship to be sure though. |

I am no attorney but I think the word "temporary" would limit the ability to alter a childs life. Good Luck... |

Temporary guardianship is just that, temporary and as such it comes with certain built in restrictions, limitations and safeguards. If you have any concerns contact a lawyer. |

first, there is alot more to adoption than just signing papers. First, the bio parents must agree and go to court and have their parental rights terminated. But in the meantime the temp. guardian must apply to the state, and get approved to adopt. Usually a home study and lots of interviews and background checks. The guardian would have to follow whatever laws their state has on adoption and the same as any other person adopting. |

No.
Temporary guardianship does not give the guardian the right to enter into a permanent contract concerning the subject of care. |

No, I'm pretty sure they can't do that in any state.
Have the parents rights been terminated? Probably they still have them or there is someone who has 'more' rights than the person with temporary guardianship. Even when there isn't I do not think that having temporary guardianship is ever sufficient for a person to place the child for adoption.
You could try calling a local family/adoption attorney though just to make sure. |

No, You have to get the biological parents to sign consent forms. |
