[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Recipient's Name] [Recipient's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Sample Letter for Invalid Power of Attorney Dear [Recipient's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to address a significant concern regarding a Power of Attorney (POA) document that has been submitted by [Name of Attorney] to our organization, giving him the authority to act on behalf of [Name of Principal]. Upon thorough review and legal analysis, we have determined that the Power of Attorney provided is invalid under Virgin Islands law. The Virgin Islands law clearly defines the requirements for a valid Power of Attorney, and unfortunately, the submitted document fails to satisfy them. The following are the main reasons for declaring it invalid: 1. Lack of Proper Execution: According to Virgin Islands Code, Title 15 §113(4), a Power of Attorney must be signed by the principal in the presence of two witnesses and acknowledged by a notary public. We have not found any evidence of such execution in the provided document. 2. Questionable Competency: Virgin Islands Code, Title 15 §116, emphasizes that a principal must have the legal capacity to understand the consequences of granting a Power of Attorney. There are concerns regarding the mental capacity of the principal at the time of execution, and thus, the validity of the document is compromised. Given the aforementioned reasons, we must inform you that we cannot recognize the authority of [Name of Attorney] under the submitted Power of Attorney. Any past, present, or future actions conducted by him on behalf of [Name of Principal] will not be deemed valid or legally binding as of the date of this letter. We kindly request your immediate attention to this matter and suggest that you consult with an attorney to rectify the situation. If a valid Power of Attorney meeting the statutory requirements is executed by [Name of Principal], please submit the updated document to our office for further consideration. Should you have any questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at [Your Phone Number] or [Your Email Address]. We are committed to assisting you in resolving this matter promptly and satisfactorily. Thank you for your immediate attention and cooperation in rectifying this issue. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
