Section 87-3-111 - Power of attorney not revoked until notice

Any action so taken, unless otherwise invalid or unenforceable, binds successors in interest of the principal.(2) The disability or incapacity of a principal who has previously executed a written power of attorney that is not a durable power does not revoke or terminate the agency as to the attorney in fact or other person, who, without actual knowledge of the disability or incapacity of the principal, acts in good faith under the power. Any action so taken, unless otherwise invalid or unenforceable, binds the principal and his successors in interest.Laws, 1994, ch. 336, § 4, eff. 7/1/1994.
