 | North Dakota Limited (Special) Power of Attorney Form |
The North Dakota limited (special) power of attorney form is used to permit someone the authority to handle specific responsibilities for an individual while they are away on business, travel, or when otherwise incapable of such. The person to whom authority is permitted is referred to as the “Agent”; an Agent acting on someone else’s behalf will be able to operate within the guidelines established in the form only. Therefore, the Agent’s authority is limited and may be terminated after a certain length of time or once a specific tasks has been accomplished. Each limited (special) power of attorney form must be signed by the Principal in front of a Notary Public.
