So, BM having POA wasn't enough.
Wonder why the courts felt it necessary to compel him to request "guardianship" ?
As in, there was no way on earth BM was going to be able to prove Suzanne was 'incapacitated'.
The courts in IN had to take him at his word.
Curious about which judge thought that was fine.
IANAL; but if I were that judge, I would've told BM he couldn't just waltz in and say--(paraphrased by me); "LISTEN, my wife is incapacitated so I need guardianship to sell this property plus any other assets in her name only. Capiche ? "
If as it was stated in earlier threads, the oldest daughter signed consent for BM-- again if I was the judge or lawyer granting BM access to funds that weren't in his name -- I'd want to speak to that daughter without BM present.
If he refused to allow anyone to speak to her, then no guardianship.
There's probably a good reason why the girls have been silent about the disappearance and possible death of their mother; they're not to blame for being to fearful to speak out-- if that's the reason.
They're victims as well, in the cruelest possible circumstances.
Imo.
Good post!
I dont think we know if there was a POA between SM and BM for sure.
The guardianship could simply be by request of the title company even if there was a POA, just to make sure there not in a mess and have something concrete.
Even tho POA's are supposed to be interstate acceptable, we dont know the type of POA, if there was one, and if it was good between states or it could have had a time limit as well.
