[CA] Does the Tenant Protection Act apply to me?

I am a homeowner who rents out 2 rooms in my primary residence. I want to terminate a month-to-month room rental with one tenant. She has not complied with our verbal agreement to clean up after her cats. I no longer want to live in a house with cats. As the other roommate has been here longer, I should issue a 60-day notice to quit, correct?

[TX] How do I create a power of attorney banks and the state recognize?

I take care of my sick sister. She has dementia, and whenever I try to handle finances, I get declined. I’m in Texas. I have current POA papers I purchased last year, but the bank won’t accept them, nor will the Texas Attorney General for child support payments. I need papers that cover all money, finances, etc., so I can actually use them. What should I do?

Is a US power of attorney effective abroad?

Hi! I have questions about Power of Attorney. My mom is bedridden and wishes to grant POA to myself and by brother. I’m a bit confused by the word Financial being included in the title. She is looking to designate us as her agents in everything as she is unable to physically go anywhere. We will need to get her ID card, US passport, and also work with the Colombian consulate to establish her dual US/Colombian citizenship. Is this the correct form for all of that? Should there be more?
