Notify your state attorneys office. Especially if it is an elderly person. The laws are now very strict. Also, was the power of attorney drawn up through an attorneys office or was it just signed and notarized by both parties. If through an attorneys office, contact them and let them know. You can also go to the courthouse and ask them what you would need and the proper wording - to request a hearing in front of a judge. Usually you just type up a paper and file with the court then they will assign a court hearing in front of the judge with all parties involved within a few weeks. Does the person who assigned the power of attorney know that abuse of this power is occurring? If a close family member you could also try going to them and having them sign a document overturning the power of attorney. It would have to be signed and notarized by both parties.

Can executor appoint a representative?

Generally, an executor can appoint an "agent" who can act on their behalf. This is done when the executor lives some distance from where the estate is being probated or in another state. You should ask the attorney who is handling the estate. If the executor simply wants to appoint someone else to take over their duties that would not be approved by the court. In that case, the executor should decline and let the court appoint another person as executor.Generally, an executor can appoint an "agent" who can act on their behalf.
