...ENTRY OF GOODS 2. Entry Process When a shipment reaches the United States, the importer of record (i.e., the owner, purchaser, or licensed customs broker designated by the owner, purchaser, or consignee) will file entry documents for the goods with the port director at the goods' port of entry. Imported goods are not legally entered until after the shipment has arrived within the port of entry, delivery of the merchandise has been authorized by CBP, and estimated duties have been paid. It is the importer of record's responsibility to arrange for examination and release of the goods. Pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 1484, the importer of record must use reasonable care in making entry. NOTE : In addition to contacting CBP, importers should contact other agencies when questions arise about particular commodities. For example, questions about products regulated by the Food and Drug Administration should be forwarded to the nearest FDA district office (check local phone book under U.S. government listings) or to the Import Division, FDA Headquarters, 301.443.6553. The sa me is true for alcohol, tobacco, firearms, wildlife products (furs, skins, shells), motor vehicles, and other products and merchandise regulated by the other federal agencies for which CBP enforces entry laws. Appropriate agencies are identified on page 197. Addresses and phone numbers for these agencies are listed in the appendix. Goods may be entered for consumption, entered for warehouse...

...that all his assets go to the children since his wife previously past. He executed a power of attorney to his son, Slowe, giving him the power to handle all of his assets. Mark Down health started deteriorating and Slowe is worried that Mark may need Medicaid. Slow wants to remove Mark’s assets of $300,000 brokerage account and give them to his children. Since Slowe said Mark is losing competency and doesn’t want to deal with any financial matters anymore, Slowe is asking if he can transfer the money. Right now that would put Mark at a 5 year period of ineligibility for long term Medicaid care. According to New York law, there are limitations to how much a power of attorney can gift a year. In the Matter of Ferrara 7 N.Y. 3d 244 (2006), decedent George J. Ferrara, executed a will stating that his entire assets will go to the Salvation Army.

...| | |Course Project | |Flaws in Advance Directives, Living Wills, and Power of Attorney | Introduction A Living Will is a form of an advance directive that is a “legal document that describes those treatments an individual wishes or does not wish to receive should he or she becomes incapacitated and unable to make medical decisions” (Pazgar, 2007, p. 378). Normally in a Living Will an individual would also indicate another individual as his or her power of attorney in the legal document; however, it is not necessary for a living will to be created with a power of attorney or a power of attorney to be created with a living will though it is highly recommended to do so. This is due to the fact that each has its flaws and each could compensate for one another though in reality it could create more conflicts too. For a physician or any other healthcare provider to go against a patient’s autonomy means that there are many legal problems these physicians may face because...

...A lot of young people in their 20s and 30s don’t have a Power of Attorney (POA). If anything were to happen to them, many in this age group think their families automatically have the right to make decisions for them. However, that is not the case. When Power of Attorney is absent, the courts dictate what happens to the individual’s property and who is allowed to make decisions for that person. Young people often forget that no one is guaranteed tomorrow and that unexpected accidents can leave a person incapable of making his own decisions. That’s why POA documents are so important to have regardless of age. They outline what the individual wants to happen and who they want to take control in the event of such a situation. There are two kinds of POA, both of which involve appointing someone as a surrogate decision maker. Power of Attorney for Property details what an...

...suggested that her parents sign powers of attorney appointing her as their agent. Frank was upset when he found out about the POA and convinced his father to revoke the power. Francis revoked but did not tell Joan. Mrs. Gagnon dies two months later and Mr. Gagnon signed a purchase and sale agreement for the Shelburne farm. He gave the property in Hillsborough to Frank. When Mr. Gagnon told Joan about the sale of the land she, not realizing it had been revoked, used her POA to transfer the Shelburne property to a trust that she created and controlled. Mr. Gagnon’s lawyer wrote to Joan demanding that she return the Shelburne property to him, she refused. There are two issues in this case. Did Joan have the right to convey the Shelburne farm to a trust that she had established? Also, does the property belong to the trust or to Mr. Gagnon? Uniform Power of Attorney Act of 2006 According to The National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws, the concept of “power of attorney” was first incorporated into the Uniform Probate Code in 1969 to offer an inexpensive method of surrogate decision making to those whose modest assets did not justify pre-incapacity planning with a trust or post-incapacity property management with a guardianship. Over the years many states adopted non-uniform provisions to deal with issues on with the Uniform Probate Code and the original Uniform Durable Power of Attorney Act were silent. The Uniform Power of Attorney Act was enacted in 2006...

...which also makes it easier for family members to have everything planned out. Many make a decision and only tell their family what they want without having it in writing, but its best to have everything in writing for a smoother process. There are two important types of advance directives; a power of attorney or a living will. A durable power of attorney for healthcare “is a legal document that empowers another person (proxy) to make healthcare decisions for an incompetent patient. It goes into effect after the person becomes incompetent and only pertains to healthcare decisions”. (Fremgen 102) The power of attorney becomes effective when someone becomes incapable of making their own health care decisions. Medical power of attorneys covers a great amount of healthcare decisions based on the patient wishes. The power of attorney is capable of reviewing the patients’ medical records, discussing and questions to the doctor and medical staff about the care and treatment plans. It is up to the power of attorney to decide on which treatment plan or care is best for the patient or assists the patient in deciding what is best with the options given. When choosing a medical power of attorney it is important that the person chosen will act and carry out wishes. If someone who wish to avoid any...

...Calling Your Bluff: How Prosecutors and Defense Attorneys Adapt Plea Bargaining Strategies to Increased Formalization by Deirdre M. Bowen People have long debated whether plea bargaining is the best way to handle felony cases in the justice system. This article focuses on a reformed, institutionalized way to plea bargain. The author researches the King County Prosecutors rationalized approach to the way the Early Plea Unit handles their cases. Ms. Bowen states in her article that all authors reviewed agree that, “plea bargaining under an imbalanced system does not achieve justice, much less arrive at something that resembles empirical or legal truth, institutionalized plea bargaining best resembles the criminal justice system’s desire to create efficiency, calculability, predictability, and control in the processing of defendants, and that reform should work to balance the power between the prosecutors and defense team.” (Bowen) Each reviewed author had a little different way to achieve that balance. Uviller (2004) thinks that the system should resemble at factory type approach. The first stage is the charging stage. The case enters the system and is reviewed for the most obvious, easy to prove, and reasonable charges. It then would move to the adjudication. In this stage the negotiating attorney would attempt to make a deal with defendant in order to get a guilty plea. If a deal cannot be reached, the case would then be transferred to the trial team in preparation...

...Mark Down is 74 years old and getting sick. He executed a Will that leaves all of his assets to his children; Mark also executed a power of attorney, giving his son, Slowe, the power to handle all of his financial assets. Mark is getting sick and losing competency. Mark has $300,000 in a Brokerage account, which Slowe would like to transfer to his father’s children to try and remove Marks assets to allow him to be eligible for Medicaid benefits. The issue presented is whether Slowe Down, under Power of Attorney, is able to transfer his father’s assets to his children. In Matter of Ferrara, 7 N.Y.3d 244 (N.Y. 2006), the New York appellate court stated that an attorney in fact could make “gifts to the principal's spouse, children, and more remote descendants, and parents, not to exceed in the aggregate $ 10,000 to each of such persons in any year.” However, Matter of Ferrara also states that “such gifts may not exceed $ 10,000 unless the statutory short form power of attorney contains additional language…such gifts may not exceed $ 10,000 unless the statutory short form power of attorney contains additional language.” The case also went on to say that the gift-giving authority means that “the principal authorizes the agent to make gifts either outright or to a trust for the sole benefit of one or more of the specified persons only for purposes which the agent reasonably deems to be in the best interest of the principal, specifically including minimization of...

...| 1/8/2015 | Terminating an Agency depends on different factors. This paper discusses weather an agency relationship for property control is terminable inside a family | Francis Gagnon and his wife had two properties. They both were in old ages, so when their daughter Joan offered them to be their power of attorney, Francis accepted. Later Francis changed his mind and without informing his daughter revoked the power of attorney. After wife’s death, he decided to sell one of the properties and move to live with his son. Joan, acted against his father‘s wish. She established a trust and without considering the transaction, she initiated to move the house into the trust. Did Joan have the right to move the property into her trust? Haman (2004) mentions that the best way to revoke power of attorney is a written note. Joan had power of attorney. She did not receive a written note. As long as Francis had not issued a written statement or had not informed her, she could claim her authority on the property and she had the right to do that. The court also accepted her claim. If her father had not had any document to show that Joan was no longer his power of attorney, Joan could claim that she was not aware of her father‘s decision. Does the property belong to the trust or to Mr. Gagnon? The property belongs to Mr. Gagnon. There are many options for terminating an agency relationship. Beside that Joan, as an agent, had fiduciary duty to his father and moving the property...

...a surrogate leader if a man ought to end up not able to settle for therapeutic choices all alone sake. Advance directives for the most part fall into three classes: living will, health care proxy and power of attorney (Fremgen, 113). Living will This is a composed report that determines what sorts of medicinal treatment are craved. A living will can be certain or extremely broad. More particular living wills may incorporate data in regards to a singular's longing for such administrations, for example, absence of pain (agony alleviation), anti-infection agents, hydration, bolstering, and the utilization of ventilators or cardiopulmonary revival (Fremgen, 114). Health care proxy This is an authoritative report in which an individual assigns someone else to settle on health care sets in the occurrence that he or else she is rendered unequipped for making their wishes known. The health care proxy has, generally, the same rights to demand or decline treatment that the individual would have if equipped for settling on and conveying choices (www.nlm.nih.gov). Strong power of attorney This is the third sort of advance directives. People may draft authoritative reports giving power of attorney to others on account of weakening therapeutic condition. The sturdy power of attorney permits a person to make bank exchanges, sign Social Security checks, apply for handicap, or just compose checks to pay the service bill while an individual is medicinally debilitated.
