Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 77776, member: 636"] A Zimbabwean judge told Wambutso Donald Makoni to get off eight mining claims after his dad revoked the power of attorney that let him run the family operation. Justice Maxwell Takuva shut down arguments that the father was mentally incompetent after a stroke, saying physical disability does not equal mental incapacity, and the elder Makoni had every right to yank legal authority after discovering his son allegedly sold claims and pocketed $20,000 without permission. The court gave Wambutso 14 days to leave the site or face sheriff enforcement, plus he has to cover legal costs for the whole mess. The ruling reinforces that trusted authority can not be abused even between family members, and property rights hold up regardless of blood ties when the legal basis for access gets pulled. [/QUOTE]
