Allows use of 2-way real-time audiovisual technology to execute power of attorney in Michigan.
This bill amends Michigan law to allow the use of 2-way real-time audiovisual technology for executing a power of attorney. It specifies that the technology must allow direct, contemporaneous interaction, and that each page of the power of attorney must be shown to the witnesses. The signatory must also transmit a legible copy of the signed power of attorney to the witnesses within 72 hours. The bill defines key terms such as "power of attorney," "notary public," and "presently exercisable." It also outlines the requirements for a power of attorney to be durable and effective.
