Terms Used In Hawaii Revised Statutes 476-18

  • Contract: A legal written agreement that becomes binding when signed.
  • 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

No provision in a credit sale contract by which the buyer executes a power of attorney appointing the seller or holder of the contract, or other person acting on the buyer’s behalf, as the buyer’s agent in collection of payments under the contract or in the repossession of the goods shall be enforceable.
