The length of time involved with collecting for an outstanding debt depends on the state in which you live. For most states, seven years is the longest time frame.

Can a mother's warranty deed with life estate executed by an attorney in fact be revoked if grantee sibling violated the provisions of a POA and mother doesn't recall signing the POA?

Yes. The matter must be brought before a court of equity. That deed can be declared null and void and the court can remove the attorney in fact. Self dealing by a trusted fiduciary such as an attorney in fact is particularly repugnant to a court, especially a fiduciary who takes advantage of an elderly parent. (They may eventually be held criminally responsible if the matter is serious enough and pursued.) You should consult with an attorney who specializes in probate law and elder law.

What happens if one beneficiary won't accept final account of estate?

What happens if you tell the owner you cant pay and he wont come get the car but then takes you to court?

You show up in court on the date you are summoned and answer to the judge. You explain to the judge that the lender refused voluntary repossession of the vehicle. You ask for payment arrangements to be made by the judge on the outstanding balance, less court cost, legal fees, and any additional collection fees. Then you pay the debt you contracted to pay. Or, you file bankruptcy before the first case goes to court.

You should be out before the sale, but... The new owner will goto court and get a writ of possession and return with the Sheriff. It normally takes a few weeks. Speak with an attorney about your specific situation. If you can not find an attorney, contact your local Bar association and they will refer you to one.
