Subject: | Power of Attorney Legislation |
In the near future, I will be introducing legislation recommended by the Joint State Government Commission regarding the investigation of fraud and mismanagement on the part of an agent appointed under a power of attorney. The commission published its recommendations in its June 2010 report, which included language to empower a court to order an investigation, appoint a guardian ad litem, make a referral to an appropriate government agency or take other action to address allegations that a principal is suffering from financial abuse or mismanagement by an agent appointed by the principal under a power of attorney. Please join me in co-sponsoring this important piece of legislation. |
