I have recently been appointed as Agent for my father's Durable Power of Attorney. My brother was appointed as the number 2 Agent but document makes it very clear that Agent is to make all decisions concerning our father's affairs and after his father's death he was made Executors of the Estate by a will dated March 3 1980. Agent 2 signed as acknowledged Agent as the appointed representative but now says he can do anything he wants when DPOA clearly states he cannot unless Designated Agent quits. Is Agent right to follow the DPOA as set forth in the document. Thank you, Kem
