Section 26-2A-148 Conservators; title by appointment. (a) The appointment of a conservator
vests in the conservator title as trustee to all property, or to the part thereof specified
in the order, of the protected person, presently held or thereafter acquired, including title
to any property theretofore held for the protected person. Appointment of a conservator does
not terminate a custodianship created under a Uniform Gifts to Minors Act or a Uniform Transfers
to Minors Act, or a valid durable power of attorney, except on order of the court. An order
specifying that only a part of the property of the protected person vests in the conservator
creates a limited conservatorship. (b) Except as otherwise permitted herein, the interest
of the protected person in property vested in a conservator by this section is not transferable
or assignable by the protected person. An attempted transfer or assignment by the protected
person, though ineffective to affect property rights, may generate a...

Section 26-2A-149 Recording of conservator's letters. (a) Except for property unaffected by
the appointment of a conservator specified in Section 26-2A-148(a), letters of conservatorship
are evidence of transfer of all assets, or the part thereof specified in the letters, of a
protected person to the conservator. An order terminating a conservatorship is evidence of
transfer of all assets subject to the conservatorship from the conservator to the protected
person, or to successors of the person. (b) Subject to the requirements of general statutes
governing the filing or recordation of documents of title to land or other property, letters
of conservatorship and orders terminating conservatorships may be filed or recorded to give
record notice of title as between the conservator and the protected person. For the filing
and recordation of letters of conservatorship and orders terminating conservatorships, the
probate judge shall receive the same compensation (fees of registration)...
