Q: Can my sister (POA of my 92yo mother in a nursing home) get an order of protection to prevent my visits with her?
She rarely visits her & I'm there every day. Our other siblings don't care. She has lied to our mom about how she can't sell her house to me by law & other things regarding the spending of mom's money. She has also started buying luxury items & vacations etc. All I want to do is see my mom & not have to deal with the drama that surrounds my sister.
A:
File a Motion for Accounting of your Mother's Assets. Maybe you can find that she has misused your Mother's money. Then you have a basis to have her removed as POA and may be able to file for guardianship.
It is possible that an Order of Protection could be sought. Talk to a lawyer about your concerns.
