Question

I am my sister's activated Durable Power of Attorney. I do not want this responsibility, how do I terminate it? I live in AZ and she lives in NH.

Answer

She can tear it up and take you out. Usually, there are provisions in the power of attorney that if you refuse to exercise the power, there is an alternative person to make such decisions.
