A power of attorney may be oral and whether witnessed or not, will hold up in court, the same as if it were in writing. For some purposes, the law requires a power of attorney to be in writing. Many institutions, such as hospitals, banks and, in the United States, the Internal Revenue Service, require a power of attorney to be in writing before they will honor it, and they will usually keep an original copy for their records. In some countries and situations, an Electronic Power of Attorney can also be considered valid.

In what is now known as the "Drug Deposition" Michael states that he gave his then manager Dieter Weisner, Power of Attorney. (wth-) That is a huge deal IMO

Why in God's name would Michael give someone complete control over them like that? Usually people who do this are either dying, very sick, impaired.......

If Michael was impaired as he says he was when he signed over PoA, does that make it invalid and anything that was done under PoA invalid?

I also wonder if this is when Michael was taken advantage of regarding his Will. Could someone acting as PoA create a Will on behalf of an individual?

And when did this PoA end? Did anyone else take over as PoA in the future? Was MJ impaired then also?

It doesnt seem that hard to do. As I quoted from wiki above, PoA can be given verbally without witness. Plus you can do it online for free if you need documentation so it's not hard to do, or be conned into:

A penny for your thoughts?

first of all, that's the most disgusting law i ever heard. you know how many people can be taken advantage of? no witness? but of course, the IRS is the exception. no surprise there. and that's why it should be the rule, everywhere. you get the feeling the government wants everybody's money any way they can get it. secondly, sometimes info on wiki is accurate, sometimes it may not be. but i know this..thirdly, MJ saying he's not sure, should make it invalid.

Don't know why he signed over PoA, it strikes me as very odd to say the least. The video refers to MJ being impaired from Jan 2003 onwards through that year.
Branca's dismissal letter was dated Feb 2003, so to me, there are many more question marks over the validity of THAT letter than of the will he signed in July 2002.
 
This is an excellent question DI.
Was Michael that trusting with people around him to grant them full authority over his affairs? Was he so eager not to be bothered with technicalities that he let managers sign anything on his behalf? It doesn't make sense. In his own words he expressed his concerns about being cornered, threatened etc. How would he not brush everyone aside and take full responsibility of his deals?
Especially in the last 15 years when he had serious issues I'm sure he felt he couldn't trust anyone.
I believe there is a pattern in his life that could be very revealing. Back in the 80s he was into everything concerning himself and he made his own decisions. No one could interfere with them or question them. We have his own words for this in his autobiography.
So why would he let things get out of hand later? When he had already witnessed people's meanness and when he had kids to protect,a legacy to carry on, and corporate ennemies to fight?
 
I'd like to know why myself...Dileo claims Michael also signed over power of attorney to Tohme and that Tohme had everything signed for AEG on behalf of Michael. I don't understand why Michael did this when he supposedly went to June Gatlin ( but why her, she's a spiritual adviser, not business advisor) with his suspicions of Tohme and said he didn't trust him and wanted to get someone else in to watch him and also that if he wanted to speak to his lawyers or accountants he had to go through Tohme first. This was the conversation she had over the phone with Michael and taped, it aired on the Today Show.
 
maybe this conversation was with Delio but he wanted to make it looks as if it was with the woman ..maybe frank wanted this heard by the world but did not want to be the person in charge for taping MJ's voice,,,,because Michael said "that's why i called you"< "you told me to do a full check " !!!
so i think he was talking to Frank or any other business partner,,,cus he would not
say this to his spirtual advisor ...
 
^Could be...just find it strange that no one is talking about it now...but Dileo did claim on LKL that Tohme had power of attorney. The question is, why if he didn't trust him would he give him that much power over his business? It's hard for me to believe Michael would be that careless. He'd been busting his ass for so many years and then letting so many in who weren't acting in his best interests for so long. I think there are so many unanswered questions about his circle of business and who was running what and what their agendas were...a lot of mess in the last years.
 
another chance to bang on MJ, when there look like a lot of holes. ok, i'm going to ask it. this is that kind of forum. and you can't unring a rung bell. remember the vh1 video about Michael's death, where they had a person that looked strikingly like MJ, lying on a surface, getting ready to be put in a refrigerator, by door? this is the 'Sun'. sometimes, i wonder...in the video, he's wearing glasses. sort of covering the essence of his face. we have learned that videos can be edited. i wonder if this is an imposter..or..if info has been left out. MJ did care about the business side. he usually was bombarded. he's only human. it's hard to take this at face value. now i'm not saying it is or it isn't. i'm just saying it 'could be'. it's a possibility or 'probability', in MJ's words. a probability and a possibility are the same thing. let's not go semantics, here. i could go on..

it's always been easy for people to bang on him in life..and now, in death.. thinking only of ourselves, and not looking outside ourselves to step into someone else's moccasins...

i want to sit back and mellow over this, and wonder, am i seeing what i think i am seeing? this is the high tech fool you twice age.

there were just wayy too many people coming at him at once..millions..countless 'advisors'...his mother and father said there were a lot of wicked people at work here...and the more successful he was, the more sweet talking sharks coming out of the water. after a time, it's like Chinese water torture..nobody could survive it over the long haul..

he's one small human being..
at last, i'd like to say that MJ did not admit to doing anything here. his best answer is 'i don't know'.

let us be careful here. i'm not a lawyer, and i KNOW that all MJ's answers are pure 'lawyer speak'. no admission...no denial...if this is MJ, unadulterated. i know this lawyer speak, because i once grilled a lawyer, who was supposed to work for me, when i asked him what he thought about me, for a certain situation, and i never got a straight answer out of him.

and i'd like to stress that it is important to distinguish between a duress circumstance, and a voluntary circumstance. this interview is duress. that has to be considered. and it would be easier to dismiss an edited video if this was a voluntary interview on Michael's part. although anything is possible..

again, this is 'The Sun' video. and video can be edited.
