A power of attorney terminates when:\n\n1. The principal dies;\n\n2. The principal becomes incapacitated, if the power of\n\nattorney is not durable;\n\n3. The principal revokes the power of attorney;\n\n4. The power of attorney provides that it terminates;\n\n5. The purpose of the power of attorney is accomplished; or\n\n6. The principal revokes the agent's authority or the agent\n\ndies, becomes incapacitated or resigns, and the power of attorney\n\ndoes not provide for another agent to act under the power of\n\nattorney.\n\nB. An agent's authority terminates when:\n\n1. The principal revokes the authority;\n\n2. The agent dies, becomes incapacitated or resigns;\n\n3. An action is filed for divorce or annulment of the agent's\n\nmarriage to the principal or their legal separation, unless the\n\npower of attorney otherwise provides; or\n\n4. The power of attorney terminates.\n\nC. Unless the power of attorney otherwise provides, an agent's\n\nauthority is exercisable until the authority terminates under\n\nsubsection B of this section, notwithstanding a lapse of time since\n\nthe execution of the power of attorney.\n\nD. Termination of an agent's authority or of a power of\n\nattorney is not effective as to the agent or another person that,\n\nwithout actual knowledge of the termination, acts in good faith\n\nunder the power of attorney. An act so performed, unless otherwise\n\ninvalid or unenforceable, binds the principal and the principal's\n\nsuccessors in interest.\n\nE. Incapacity of the principal of a power of attorney that is\n\nnot durable does not revoke or terminate the power of attorney as to\n\nan agent or other person that, without actual knowledge of the\n\nincapacity, acts in good faith under the power of attorney. An act\n\nso performed, unless otherwise invalid or unenforceable, binds the\n\nprincipal and the principal's successors in interest.\n\nF. The execution of a power of attorney does not revoke a power\n\nof attorney previously executed by the principal unless the\n\nsubsequent power of attorney provides that the previous power of\n\nattorney is revoked or that all other powers of attorney are\n\nrevoked.","path":["OK Code","Title 58"],"source_url":"https://www.oklegislature.gov/OK_Statutes/CompleteTitles/os58.pdf","current_through":"2026-08-14","vintage":"open-us-law v2026.08, retrieved 2026-09-14","retrieved_at":"2026-09-14T18:32:36Z","sha256":"3a44aa01fcfaec46ee5c3ea1bfe87cfedadf93a0d038e9b61c37b499140eb6e5","source_id":"us-ok","stale":false,"prev":"us-ok/okla.-stat.-tit.-58-58-3009","next":"us-ok/okla.-stat.-tit.-58-58-3011"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
