You would want to consult an attorney who handles this type of proceeding. You will probably need to bring an action to attempt to remove him.

Yes you can. As your mother's agent. (A POA is a document) He owes her a fiduciary duty not to waste your mother's assets.

You will need to file suit in the county where the POA was filed.

If you have any questions feel free to contact me. The initial consultation is free.
