Yes. If you feel that your aunt is failing to act as your grandmother's agent under a Power of Attorney, you can file a petition to become your aunt's Guardian. However, this approach should be handled carefully to minimize the likelihood of costly contested litigation. Feel free to call me for a free consultation. I've handled many matters like this.
