With the passing of H.R. 329, the Judiciary has announced that the facilitation of Power of Attorney requests is now operational. The Power of Attorney is the legal authorisation for a designated person to make decisions about another person’s property, finances, or medical care. Its a very serious process and something you should seek legal advice about before proceeding.
The authorisation process takes place over three steps.
- Initiation of Request, by completing the application form
- A Hearing, when the application is approved
- Approval and Finalisation, upon a successful demonstration of understanding and agreement by both parties
There is a small processing fee of $500.
The Judiciary is also reminding newly-weds and already married couples that they can pick up their physical marriage licenses. They come in a beautiful wooden frame which you can hold, display or place on your wall in your home.
For more information please contact a court clerk.
