A Power of Attorney expires immediately upon the death of the principal. The attorney-in-fact has no power whatsoever to do anything with property after the death of the principal. You should discuss this situation with an attorney ASAP or with someone in your local district attorney's office. The attorney-in-fact had no legal power to sell property of the decedent and can be criminally prosecuted.


Can an Executor who has Power of Attorney take money out of the Estate before the estate owner dies?

The terms you used in your question are used incorrectly. A person cannot be an attorney-in-fact under a POA and an executor at the same time. A power of attorney serves a living person. There is no executor appointed until the testator dies.A POA gives an attorney-infact the authority to act on behalf of a living person (the principal). An attorney-in-fact is prohibited by law from transferring the assets of the principal to their own use. When the principal dies the power of attorney is extinguished and an estate representative must be appointed. An executor is appointed by the court if the decedent left a Will. A person isn't an executor until the will has been allowed by the probate court and the court has appointed the executor.You need to consult with an attorney ASAP who can review your situation and explain your options. You may need to sue the AIF.
