- Power of attorney: A written instrument which authorizes one person to act as another's agent or attorney. The power of attorney may be for a definite, specific act, or it may be general in nature. The terms of the written power of attorney may specify when it will expire. If not, the power of attorney usually expires when the person granting it dies. Source: OCC
If a lessor without knowledge of the death or an order determining the incapacity of the lessee deals with the lessee’s agent in accordance with a written power of attorney or a durable power of attorney signed by such lessee, the transaction binds the lessee’s estate and the lessee.
