legal rights
My mother in law lives in Indiana my husband and I live in Arkansas. We need to know what our legal rights would be to bring her to live in Ar. with us. Her younger son said he has power of attorney, but we are not sure. He has placed her into a nursing home. this is why we want her to live with us. He has been taking care of by paying bills and other things, but we just found out he hasn't paid her house payment in 2 months. She has also lived with out water for over 30 days while in his care. He does not live with her. She lives in her own house. Afetre he husband past away is when he being the closest to her started taking care of her. I really need to know what our legal rights are and what we can do about bringing her to live with us.

Re: legal rights
You should consult with an attorney who could perhaps intervene. You may need to obtain a guardianship or work with the brother to change the power of attorney.
