Liability of the guardian

(1) The guardian is answerable to the ward for the damage arising from a breach of duty if they are at fault. The same applies to the supervisory guardian.

(2) If more than one person together are responsible for the damage, they are liable as joint and several debtors. If, in addition to the guardian, the supervisory guardian or a co-guardian is responsible only by reason of breach of their duty to supervise, then as between them the guardian alone is liable.
