Spanish term

autorización con carácter general

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general)
Saludo cordial a todos. Tengo una escritura pública que protocolizan dos padres de familia ante un notario para autorizar a un adulto para que atienda los asuntos de su hija de 18 años mientras está en Estados Unidos. Lo que equivale a un 'guardian'. Tal vez hay una fórmula establecida para este caso, además de ' power of attorney' o similar. El texto dice así:

Escritura pública número xxx
del: XXX
AUTORIZACION CON CARACTER GENERAL
De: Michael...
A: Susan....

En la ciudad de ..... ante mi comparecieron..... quienes manifestaron:
1. que mediante el presente instrumento público autorizamos a Susan para que sea la represente legal de nuestra hija Monica en la ciudad de Denver.....
2. esta autorización es válida para que nos represente ante las autoridades civiles, de familia, penales y administrativas....., en contratos educativos y hospitalarios y otros, en todo momento.....
3. esta autorización tiene carácter de permanente o general hasta tanto no sea revocada por nosotros....

Eileen Brophy Jul 31, 2011:
I know of no alternative to legal guardian or a general authorisation (as legal guardian) .
carosisi (asker) Jul 31, 2011:
Cuando digo que equivale a 'guardian'es porque el adulto, en este caso Susan va a serlo para esta menor de edad, según la definición del diccionario:
Guardian: legally responsible person; somebody who is legally entrusted to manage somebody else's affairs, especially those of a minor.

Con esto no me refiero a la traducción de Autorización, de hecho por eso pregunto si hay algo diferente a 'power of attorney'

general power of attorney

Since the document includes que sea la represente legal de nuestra hija and para que nos represente ante las autoridades civiles, de familia, penales y administrativas, this is nothing other than a wide-ranging (not to say 'no limits') PoA.

power of attorney

Not general powers, not guardian.

Parties

Powers of attorney are granted by one person, called a principal, to another person, called either the attorney-in-fact or the agent. While the term attorney-in-fact is commonly used, it does not mean the person granted the power of attorney must be a lawyer. Once granted POA, the attorney-in-fact then interacts on behalf of the parent when dealing with third parties like school officials or medical personnel.
Factors

As a parent, you may want to grant power of attorney over minor children for a number of reasons. For example, some military personnel deployed overseas or on lengthy assignments can use POA to allow grandparents or relatives to act as the child's guardian. Other powers of attorney are used on a contingent basis, allowing someone else to watch over your children in case something happens to you.
Powers

In general, powers of attorney for minor children are limited powers of attorney. This means that the attorney-in-fact can make the same decisions you can make about the child, but can't, for example, decide to start taking money out of your checking account. However, powers of attorney are not the same as guardianships, which can only be granted by a court. Attorneys-in-fact cannot chose to take a child off life support.
