If a person whom has POA dies before the person whom he has POA, does the POA go to the executor of the deceased estate to appoint another?

Michael Charles Doland
Answered by attorney Michael Charles Doland (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Doland & Fraade
The death of the holder of a power of attorney (as well as the death of the grantor) terminates the power of attorney. It does not transfer to another.

I am trustee for an irrevocable trust what do the words health, education and maintenance mean?

James Bloomfield Oberholtzer
Answered by attorney James Bloomfield Oberholtzer
Estate Planning lawyer at James Oberholtzer, Chartered
As the trustee, you can use the income and principal of the trust for the beneficiaries. Are you also a beneficiary? If not, you cannot use the trust resources for yourself. If you are a beneficiary, you can use the resources under the conditions set forth in the trust. You have to read the entire trust since some provisions have cross provisions effects. So, you cannot just take one phrase out of context and use it as your guide. That said, "health, education and welfare" is a phrase taken from tax law as well as trust law.

Why would my father's widow need my mothers death certificate?

Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
Possibly because the life insurance has your mother as the beneficiary and to the estate if she is dead. Ask his wife. She shouldn't have a problem telling you .
