Re: joint custody arrangement, not a divorce.

No problem.

ORS 109.056 says: A parent or a guardian of a minor or incapacitated person, by a properly executed power of attorney, may delegate to another person, for a period not exceeding six months, any of the powers of the parent or guardian regarding care, custody or property of the minor child or ward, except the power to consent to marriage or adoption of a minor ward.

Forms are available from various online sources, as well as through the Stevens-Ness Legal Stationery store in downtown Portland and through their network of local distributors.

See Steven-Ness form # 1478 - Delegation of Powers of Parent.
