Was it legal to use my mother-in-law's credit card?
My mother-in-law made a power of attorney to give me the authority to handle her finances. I used one of her Visa cards to buy something for myself. I am paying the bill, but she thinks I should be charged in a criminal court. Since I had a power of attorney, wasn't this legal to do?
