Treasury propose to ignore powers of attorney for claims
A Treasury Department plan would bar assignments and powers of attorney in paying warrants on claims. It would require a specific act of discharge by the claimant, potentially eliminating attorney fees when claimants receive warrants by mail. The move, credited to First Comptroller Matthews, threatens the long established practice of attorneys collecting fees after the claimant’s money is paid. It risks the standing of two thousand leading firms across major cities.
