FAQ: Do I need to update my health care power of attorney if it doesn´t have a HIPAA waiver in it?

Yes, in April, 2004 the Federal Government passes a bill making all our medical information confidential, even from our loved ones. If you are not able to give verbal consent for your doctor or hospital personnel to talk to your spouse or other related loved one, they will not talk to them about your condition unless you have a health care power of attorney with a HIPAA waiver

Public Trustee Queensland Illegally Stole My Funds.

Director of Client Services, Public Trustee, Queensland, steals money illegally from a disabled person. Tim Feeley and his senior associates, Tanya Vellacott, Public Trustee Manager in Toowoomba, Queensland and Robert Moran, Deputy Director of Client Services, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, were directed by Tim Feeley to make this disabled person submit to their bullying tactics. The subject’s basic human rights were taken away from him and was treated with contempt and disrespect for over a decade. The subject suffers from a VERY rare illness called “tuberous sclerosis”. So rare, that only a handful of doctors worldwide have specialised in diagnosing and can suggest ways to alleviate the associated problems. There is no cure for this illness. The subject, over a number of years has developed two brain tumours and two kidney tumours due to tuberous scleroses” The inexcusable thing about this situation, is that The Public Trustee and Adult Guardian, Queensland (who work hand in hand), did not research or even try to understand the subject’s illness, in fact they just ignored his special needs and decided for a quick fix. That quick fix was to commit the subject to Baille Henderson Hospital, Toowoomba, Queensland, Australia, a mental institution, for the remainder of his life. The Adult Guardian Queensland officers in charge of the subject’s well being and accommodation needs were Jane Antoine and Kelly Durston. They both displayed contempt for the subject, treated him like he was brain dead (no capacity), as they called it, and offered no long term solution for his future. The subject’s sister, who lives in New Zealand, heard about the subjects plight, and had to fight the Queensland bureaucracy tooth and nail to get him out of Australia…that’s another story!!! The subject’s sister is his new Enduring Power Of Attorney, however, the Public Trustee, Queensland are refusing to co-operate in any way or to admit that they NO LONGER hold a Power Of Attorney over him. He has approx. AUD $20,000 in Public Trustee accounts that are illegally being held, because they refuse to take instructions from his sister, who is his new, legally appointed Power Of Attorney…

Removing an Executor of an Estate

Removing an Executor of an Estate
Under New Jersey Law, the person selected as an executor of a Will has numerous legal responsibilities following the death of the person who signed the Will. Primarily, they have a duty to probate the Will, liquidate assets, pay bills and taxes, file all necessary court and tax returns, and then distribute the assets to beneficiaries.
In New Jersey, the court and Surrogate do not supervise how an executor or administrator handles the estate. An Executor occasionally fails to timely carry out their duties. They may fail to file tax returns, fail to keep records, misappropriate funds or ignore instructions under the Will. If a beneficiary is not satisfied with the handling of the estate, they can have an attorney file a Complaint in the Superior Court to compel accounting, remove the executor, compel filing of tax returns and seek other relief.
The New Probate Statute of NJ made a number of substantial changes to the provisions governing the administration of estates and trusts in New Jersey.
Under the United States Supreme Court Case, Tulsa Professional Collection Services, Inc., v. Joanne Pope, Executrix of the Estate of H. Everett Pope, Jr., Deceased, 108 S.CT. 1340 (1988) the Personal Representative in every estate is personally responsible to provide actual notice to all known or “readily ascertainable” creditors of the decedent. This means that is the executor’s responsibility to diligently search for any “readily ascertainable” creditors.
In lieu of a Formal Accounting the beneficiaries will usually be requested to sign a Release and Refunding bond. If a beneficiary has evidence of misappropriation, they should ask the executor for an informal accounting prior to signing the Release and Refunding bond.
COMPLAINT FOR ACCOUNTING & REMOVAL OF EXECUTOR
A Complaint for Accounting is filed in the Superior Court Probate Part to request on accounting, removal of the current executor and selection of a new person to administer and wrap up the estate. See Rule 4:87-1
A signed certification of one or more beneficiaries is needed. In addition, an Order to Show Cause is prepared by the attorney. The Order to Show Cause is submitted to be signed by the Judge directing the executor to file a written answer to the Complaint, as well as appear before the court at a specific date and time.
