The Rhode Island Revocation of Power of Attorney is the legal device generated to negate a power of attorney that is already in place. Once the original agreement issuing authority to another is no longer needed, the effective cancellation of the prior commitment can be carried out by using the provided form. Applying the corresponding information on the initial transaction’s attorney-in-fact, declarant, and associated POA must be documented within the form’s contents. The principal and notary public can then sign to revoke the gained rights from the previous contractual obligation.
