<p class="MsoNormal">Hello, <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
Does anyone know of any statutes, local rules or other authority that state how an attorney in fact/agent (under a POA) must sign legal or court documents? I am trying to establish fraud/misrepresentation so I am looking for any authority that states that the
 agent should disclose their authority to sign or that they are signing as an agent on behalf of the principle rather than just a plain signature. <o:p></o:p></p>
