Frances Bean Cobain, the only daughter of late rocker Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love, has been placed in a temporary guardianship.

Court records show Cobain's mother Wendy O'Connor and his sister Kimberly Dawn Cobain are now caring for their 17-year-old daughter.  

The records do not mention Love or give a reason for the guardianship.

A three-page court order is all that is publicly available.

Attorney Geraldine Wyle, handling the case for the mother and sister, called it a private family matter and said no other comment would be issued.  

An email message to Love's publicist Alan Nierob seeking comment was not immediately returned.  

The court order, which is valid until February, grants Cobain's mother and sister no control over a trust established by the Nirvana frontman for his daughter.
