(c) After the client has died.

(4) The fees and costs allowed by the court at the final accounting must not exceed the amounts advanced and paid to the guardian from the client's participation if:

(a) The court, at a prior accounting, allowed the guardian to receive guardianship fees and related costs from the client's participation in advance of services rendered by the guardian; and

(b) The client dies before the next accounting.
