What do I do if my mother has passed without signing over a power of attorney?

Power of attorney is never valid after someone dies. If she left an estate, it will likely have to be probated. See a probate attorney to discuss the details. Most will give a free consultation.

He could, but it would be awfully suspicious and may be a breach of his fiduciary duty to his brother.

Basically a question of South Carolina law. However, basic common law would say, does brother have a reason why this should happen? Power of attorney only allows you to do those things that the principal would do if he were able not what you want, or think is right, but what the principal wants.
