pablos mother has given him power of attorney. which action is not his legal right?

a. making medical decisions for his mother

b. changing the beneficiaries in his mother’s will

c. making end - of - life care decisions for his mother

d. signing checks on his mother’s behalf

Explanation:

A power of attorney (POA) grants authority to act on someone's behalf, but changing a will's beneficiaries is typically not a power granted by a general or medical POA. A will's beneficiaries are determined by the will - maker (Pablo's mother) or through proper will - amendment procedures, not by a POA holder. Medical POA (which Pablo likely has if he can make medical decisions) allows medical/end - of - life decisions, and a financial POA allows financial actions like signing checks.

Answer:

B. Changing the beneficiaries in his mother’s will
