When does my power of attorney end?
It ends when you die. It also ends when your attorney dies, resigns, or is no longer capable of making personal care decisions for you. This is true unless you have more than one attorney or a substitute.
And it ends when:
- a court appoints a Guardian of the Person for you,
- you make a new one while you’re mentally capable of doing that, unless the new one says something else, or
- you cancel or revoke it while you’re mentally capable.
