You can't. Power of Attorney is only for people who are alive. You can however petition to become the executor of that person's estate.

Can a non custodial parent avoid full time work?

I'm guessing that you are the custodial parent, and you are wondering what you can do to get the non-custodial parent to make enough money to help pay for the expenses of your child? The technical answer to your question is, "Yes, a non custodial parent CAN avoid working..." However, there may be consequences for the dead-beat parent that s/he won't like. If you can show that the non-custodial parent is intentionally neglecting his/her responsibilities, the court will be able to take certain measures against the dead-beat parent. You need to consult with a family-law attorney, and it is usually best if you use the same attorney who handled your original custodial agreement. If you cannot afford an attorney, there are free legal services in every state.

How can you sign legal paper work for a person brain dead?

You could probably sign legal paperwork for a person who is brain dead if you have a Durable Power of Attorney from them. Of course, they would have had to have signed it before they were brain dead. And it probably has to be a DURABLE Power of Attorney, because a simple Power of Attorney usually only applies while the person is alive and not incapacitated, as they usually expire upon death or incapacity. Lacking a Durable Power of Attorney, you might have to petition the courts for Guardianship or Conservatorship of the person in order to sign legal paperwork for them. And making decisions regarding continued health care for an incapacitated individual might additionally require a Health Care Advance Directive, or a Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care. And you should ask this question to a practicing attorney, not depend on any answer here!!
