<p class="MsoNormal">All:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A bank is refusing to accept a copy of the durable power of attorney (DPOA) the attorney-in-fact presented to it. It maintains that it needs the original, which, of course, cannot be located. The principal is out of the area for the better
part of a couple years and creating a new original is not feasible.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Therefore, I need to prepare the affidavit contemplated under RCW 11.94.040 for the attorney-in-fact to present to the bank. Does anyone have a copy of the affidavit they would be willing to share? Also, in addition to threatening to
bring an action to compel the bank to honor the DPOA, does any have an advice on how best to proceed or what has worked best for them when faced with a similar situation?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks in advance,<o:p></o:p></p>
