I own a business that rents it's facility. In March the owner of this facility started showing signs of dementia. His daughter showed up and stated she would be taking care of his buildings, she produced no legal documentation. I continued to issue the rent checks in the name of the legal owner. she then requested that I issue the checks in her name, once again not producing any legal documentation. I politely refused and continued to issue the checks in the name of the legal owner. Yesterday I recieved an funeral obituary from his daughter stating that his funeral took place on 12-15-04. the Obit stated that the owners wife, his sister, his son and this daughter are still living. However, in the Obit was a note from the daughter requesting that the rent checks be issued in her name. I need some information concerning my rights and the do's and don'ts before i correspond with her again. HELP! :?
