How does an agent resign?
An agent may resign according to the terms and conditions stated in the power of attorney. The agent must notify, in writing, the principal, the guardian and / or conservator (if any), any successor agent named in the document and third parties as required by law. However, if the principal is incapacitated and there is no successor agent available, the agent should take steps to assure that a responsible person will take his or her place as the decision maker for the principal.
