RaeCast asked:


Is it legal for an individual (who has custody over an elderly mother) to intentionally severe communication between said mother and other family members, in spite of the mother’s unwillingness to do so? What legal action can be taken?

EDIT: In reply to the first answer– yes, the individual involved (not me, by the way) does have power of attorney. I need to know if any legal action can be taken in regard to the situation.
