Revocation of a POA

A principal may revoke a POA at any time by employing one of three methods.  First, the principal may physically destroy all executed originals.  Second, he or she can sign and acknowledge a written revocation (per R. S. 46:14-2.1).  Finally, the principal may revoke by notice to the attorney in fact.

It should be noted that simply appointing another in a later POA does not in itself revoke an earlier POA, unless the subsequent POA expressly provides.  N.J.S.A. 46:2B-8.10.

Prudence dictates that the principal maintain a list of the person or people to whom an original has been given.
