Subject: [WSBAPT] Capacity to Sign Power of Attorney in WA

Hi-

I'm trying to find a WA statute or case on point for the capacity required for a person to sign a power of attorney. I've been unsuccessful in my research. In general, I understand it would be the same capacity needed to sign a contract, but hoping to find a statute or case on point for Washington.

Thanks in advance for any insights or pointing me in the right direction.
