What is the name of your state?Mi. I'll keep it as short as I can. Son has POA over Mom & Dad (My Grandparents). Son tries to claim GPA is incomatant. Sister,Mom&Dad(My Grandparents)go to court and sister is given gaurdinship for medical only. Sister,Mom&Dad and court app. attorney then cancel POA of son and appt. no POA.Both of my grandparents are in a home and gma my be ok in a month or so. Sister has requested full guardinship. The nursing home said the change of POA may not be vaild cause my grandparents could not make there own medical desicions. I have little or no respect for the court appt. attorney who let them not have a POA and their money was not handle correctly(All the money is in cd' at a bank) Is there a way I can step in in the courts someway??? BTW the son has a case against him in which he got his name on and elders house,which he has also done to his parents. I forgot to say that the will was changed to drop the son when the POA was cancled. It appears that the money will end up gone and the son will get the house.

Son tries to claim GPA is incomatant.

**Grandparent(s) will be evaluated for competency.

Sister,Mom&Dad(My Grandparents)go to court and sister is given gaurdinship for medical only.Sister,Mom&Dad and court app. attorney then cancel POA of son and appt. no POA.

** Until competency is determined this can be done and is perfectly legal at this time. Court appointed attorney represents grandparent(s) and grandparent(s) wants and wishes, not your sister.


Both of my grandparents are in a home and gma my be ok in a month or so. Sister has requested full guardinship.

**Other interested parties should be notified and can contest.

The nursing home said the change of POA may not be vaild cause my grandparents could not make there own medical desicions.

**Not true. There is a court order. Court appointed Health Care Surrogate invalidates a Medical POA. However, grandparent(s) still can have a say-so in regard to medical decisions.

I have little or no respect for the court appt. attorney who let them not have a POA and their money was not handle correctly(All the money is in cd' at a bank)

** What happened to the money?


Is there a way I can step in in the courts someway???

** What do you want to do different than what your sister, who wants guardianship, is doing?



BTW the son has a case against him in which he got his name on and elders house,which he has also done to his parents.

**Does your sister and the court appointed attorney for your grandparent(s) know about this?


I forgot to say that the will was changed to drop the son when the POA was cancled. It appears that the money will end up gone and the son will get the house.

**Who changed the will? If his name was dropped from the will being changed, how will he end up with the house?
**How long ago did all this legal action occur?

sorry I type the sister wrong it is my grand parents daughter

The money is still there. I'm assuming the money will be gone before they pass away and the son gets all the money from the house and the daughter (sister) gets 0. I just feel the att. should have advise them to protect the money for when they go ointo a home(he may have). Yes all parites are notifed of the date but I worry that the son will try to say the change in the will was no good. If that were to happen what could I do. I I'm in agreement with the care the daughter has been giving. Yes everyone is aware of the other court case but no records can be found(it may not be completed, it is a 6 figure amount). I was told that because the son is on the title that in the death of the parents he would be intitled to 100% of the house reguardles of the will which he was removed from by his parents (My grandparents) My interest is only for my grandparents,I I'm not in the will nor do I wish to be. I have heard both sides for 8 months and yes my parent(the son) is the bad son.

Have faith in your aunt who is applying for guardianship. It takes 6-8 weeks for the appointment. Upon your aunt being appointed guardian, she will secure all your grandparents assests under direction of the court. She will also be able to take care of any inappropriate changes with wills, etc. under direction and review of the court. Your grandparents money will be placed in restricted funds that can only be accessed by a court order. Your grandparents care and needs will be taken care with THEIR money by the guardian who's duty is to do so. What's left will be distributed to heirs as directed by the court.
