Residence on legal forms when out of country
I will be leaving the country in 6 weeks and will be gone for a year. I want to give my father power of attorney in case something urgent happens in the U.S. while I am away. Different states have different requirements for this and other documents I’d like to get in order (health directive, will, etc.). I am currently residing in Florida, my parents reside in Texas. Which state’s legal requirements should I use?

power of attorney
My mother has demenia and how do I go by making my brother and myself the power of attorney over her? She is 76 years old and my brother has been living with her for the past 5 years taking care of her. And we want to be able to have power of attorney over her. I live in one state and they are in another. She lives in Georgia and I am in Florida.

I was recently incarcerated and had someone paying my bills for me while I was away. I recently found out that they stole money from me. I never signed a power of attorney for them so can I press charges?

Power of attorney resposibilities
I have POA for my mentally challenged mother, prior to getting this POA she made some decisions which removed her medical insurance coverage. She then got sick, had to be hospitalized and needed the coverage so not having it has incurred some bills. With me now having POA can I be held responsible for her medical bills?
Hello,
My sister and I have a problem with a mobile home my mother…
Hello,
My sister and I have a problem with a mobile home my mother left us when she died in 2007. The mobile home is in a mobile home park east of Sacramento. The problem is that she left legal language in her documents to give a “Gift of Right of Occupancy” to a male friend of hers who had lived with her as a friend. They were never married, so there is no legal relationship that my sister and I have with him. The man’s blood relations have not taken care of him, but his son stole items from our mother’s mobile home when he was visiting his father once. However, my sister and her husband, myself and the rest of my family have treated him (the father) like a family member. He is in his mid-80s and fell recently, shattering his hip. After surgery in the hospital and a short recovery period, the attending doctor determined that he could not be without full-time care and so he was discharged to a skilled nursing facility. Here is our problem: he has not met the terms of the “Right of Occupancy” for quite some time, has been addicted to Vicadin for over 2 years and has not kept up the maintenance of the property to the point that we have had to pay thousands of dollars in repairs that could have been avoided. Additionally, his blood daughter has Power of Attorney, and his checkbook, so we do not know what to do. We need to remove his things from the mobile home, do whatever we can to clean up the mess he has left behind and repair whatever other damage has occurred from what was not maintained and try our best to sell the mobile home as soon as possible because of the great loss we have already incurred. We cannot rent the property, for it is against the mobile park regulations. I have looked online at the CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE DIVISION 2, PART 2, CHAPTER 2.5, MOBILEHOME RESIDENCY LAW AND CHAPTER 2.6 RECREATIONAL VEHICLE PARK OCCUPANCY LAW and cannot figure out how our situation relates to the code since he is not a “renter” or “tenant”, as far as I understand it. However, I also see the 3-day eviction notice conditions and realize he has broken the conditions of his “Right of Occupancy” over and over, so again, we don’t know what to do.
Do you have any ideas to help or can you direct us to the correct code sections that might cover this type of thing?
Many thanks for your kindness,
Joy
