Power of Attorney Was Invalid without Notice and Acknowledgement

Lease signed by agent for trustees as owners of the property was invalid because the power of attorney did not have the notice required by 20 Pa.C.S. § 5601(c) or the acknowledgement of the agent required by 20 Pa.C.S. § 5601(d). The immunity provision of 20 Pa.C.S. § 5608(d) was not relevant because at issue was the validity of an option under a lease and there was no liability being asserted against the agent or the parties dealing the agent. Motee v. Bazzanza, Trustee, 395 EDA 2025 (Pa. Super. 10/15/2025).
