Hello Allen,
In California:
- A power of attorney (POA) holder owes a fiduciary duty to the principal.
- They must act in the principal's best interest, not misuse the assets.
- If you suspect misuse, you can petition the court for a review of the POA's actions.
Consider consulting a local attorney for specific advice.
Thank you, that is what i thought
