If an agent cannot provide proof of their authority then you should NOT accept their signature on any legal document. They have no authority until they can PROVE that they do. When an attorney-in-fact signs a document on behalf of the principal they should not only provide the POA document but also an Affidavit stating they are the AIF, the principal has not died and the POA has not been revoked.

How do one cancel a power of attorney?

In FL unless the power of attorney provides a different method for an agent's resignation, an agent may resign by giving notice to the principal, to the guardian if the principal is incapacitated and one has been appointed for the principal, and to any co-agent, or if none, the next successor agent.


If an inmate signs over power of attorney to a nephew can the power of attorney cash a government check issued to the inmate?

Yes, but you'll need to bring the power of attorney form and proof of who you are to the bank. If the teller doesn't know what a power of attorney is then all you have to do is get the manager. They always deal with power of attorney agents, and know what the form gives you authority to do, which is act on the behalf of the executor in all financial matters, except matters specifically stated in the form that the agent can't handle.
