CHAPTER 241
H.P. 508 - L.D. 699
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows:
Sec. 1. 18-A MRSA §5-507 is enacted to read:
§5-507. Powers of attorney-in-fact
A power of attorney that contains language appointing the attorney-in-fact to care for, manage, control and handle all of the principal's business, financial, property and personal affairs in as full and complete a manner as the principal might do does not limit the generality of the powers of the attorney-in-fact by the inclusion in the power of attorney of a list of the specific powers granted to the attorney-in-fact. Nothing in this section may be construed to broaden or add to any powers specifically enumerated in a durable health care power of attorney, whether or not the durable health care power of attorney is incorporated within any other power of attorney.
Effective September 19, 1997, unless otherwise indicated.
