appointed fiduciary.

A. In a power of attorney, a principal may nominate a guardian

of the principal's estate or guardian of the principal's person for

consideration by the court if protective proceedings for the

principal's estate or person are begun after the principal executes

the power of attorney. Except for good cause shown or

disqualification, the court shall make its appointment in accordance

with the principal's most recent nomination.

B. If, after a principal executes a power of attorney, a court

appoints a guardian of the principal's estate or other fiduciary

charged with the management of some or all of the principal's

property, the agent is accountable to the fiduciary as well as to

the principal. The power of attorney is not terminated and the

agent's authority continues unless limited, suspended or terminated

by the court.
