UNTIL LETTERS HAVE ISSUED."

2311. Except as otherwise required by the order of appointment, the
letters of guardianship or conservatorship shall be in substantially
the same form as letters of administration.

2313. Except in temporary conservatorships, a conservator of the
estate shall record a certified copy of the letters with the county

they are issued, but no later than 90 days after the conservator is
appointed. A temporary conservator of the estate may record the
letters if the conservator deems it appropriate.
