ARNOLD, Judge.
The question presented by this appeal, whether a general guardian of an insane or incompetent person may maintain an action for divorce based on a year's separation, has not been previously decided by the courts of this State. See, 1 Lee, North Carolina Family Law § 59 (n. 188) (1963 and 1976 Cum.Supp.). We conclude that such an action cannot be maintained.
The powers granted a general guardian by statute are found in G.S. 33-20.
