Barron’s Law Dictionary pg.37- Attorney-may refer to an attorney in fact or attorney at law.  An ATTORNEY IN FACT is one who is an agent or representive of another given authority to act in that person’s place and name.  The document giving the attorney his authority is called a power of attorney.

The general reference to an attorney is usually intended to designate an ATTORNEY AT LAW.  This is one of a class of persons admitted by the state’s highest court of by a federal court to practice law in that jurisdiction.  The attorney is regarded as an officer of the court and is always subject to the admitting court’s jurisdiction as to his ethical and professional conduct.  Violations of those standards of conduct may result in discipline of the attorney in the form of censure, suspension, of disbarment.

 

Black’s Law Dictionary 7th Edition, pg. 124 –“Attorney”-1.  Strictly, one who is designated to transact business for another: a legal agent. Also termed attorney-in-fact:private attorney.  2.  A person who practices law: LAWYER.----Also termed (in sense 2) attorney-at-law, public attorney.  Cf. COUNSEL

Black’s Law Dictionary 7th Edition, pg. 127 –“Authority”-1. The right or permission to act legally on another’s behalf; the power delegated by a principal to an agent <authority to sign the contract>. See AGENCY

 

                “The term ‘authority,’ like the term ‘contract,’ may easily be used in three senses, and is therefore a term to be avoided when accurate reasoning is desirable.  It maybe used to mean (1) the operative acts of the principal, (2) a physical document executed by the principal, or (3) the legal relations consequent upon the preceding operative facts (1) and  (2),  and especially the legal power conferred upon the agent to bring the principal into new legal relations without any further action by the principal.  The operative facts may be spoken words, a document together with the acts necessary to execute it, or other conduct by the principal apparently expressing an intention to create a power.  Hereafter, the word ‘authority’ will be used to denote these operative facts, in other cases the word power will usually be substituted.  This latter word is not so likely to be taken in shifting senses, in spite of the fact that ‘power of attorney’ generally means a physical document under seal.” William R. Anson, Principals of the Law of Contract 508 n.1 (Arthur L. Corbin ed., 3d Am. Ed. 1919).

And if it be a beast, whereof men bring an offering unto Yahweh, all that any man give of such unto Yahweh shall be holy. He shall not alter it, nor change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good: and if he shall at all change beast for beast, then it and the exchange thereof shall be holy. And if it be any unclean beast, of which they do not offer a sacrifice unto Yahweh, then he shall present the beast before the priest: And the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad: as you valuest it, who art the priest, so shall it be. But if he will at all redeem it, then he shall add a fifth part thereof unto your estimation. And when a man shall sanctify his house to be holy unto Yahweh, then the priest shall estimate it, whether it be good or bad: as the priest shall estimate it, so shall it stand.  And if he that sanctified it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your estimation unto it, and it shall be his. And if a man shall sanctify unto Yahweh some part of a field of his possession, then your estimation shall be according to the seed thereof: an homer of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.

If he sanctify his field from the year of jubilee, according to your estimation it shall stand. But if he sanctify his field after the jubilee, then the priest shall reckon unto him the money according to the years that remain, even unto the year of the jubilee, and it shall be abated from your estimation. And if he that sanctified the field will in any wise redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of your estimation unto it, and it shall be assured to him. And if he will not redeem the field, or if he have sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more. But the field, when it goeth out in the jubilee, shall be holy unto Yahweh, as a field devoted; the possession thereof shall be the priest's. And if a man sanctify unto Yahweh a field which he have bought, which is not of the fields of his possession; Then the priest shall reckon unto him the worth of your estimation, even unto the year of the jubilee: and he shall give your estimation in that day, as a holy thing unto Yahweh.

In the year of the jubilee the field shall return unto him of whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land did belong. And all your estimations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs shall be the shekel. Only the firstling of the beasts, which should be Yahweh's firstling, no man shall sanctify it; whether it be ox, or sheep: it is Yahweh's. And if it be of an unclean beast, then he shall redeem it according to your estimation, and shall add a fifth part of it thereto: or if it be not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your estimation. Notwithstanding no devoted thing, that a man shall devote unto Yahweh of all that he have, both of man and beast, and of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy unto Yahweh.

None devoted, which shall be devoted of men, shall be redeemed; but shall surely be put to death. And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is Yahweh's: it is holy unto Yahweh. And if a man will at all redeem ought of his tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth part thereof. And concerning the tithe of the herd, or of the flock, even of whatsoever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto Yahweh. He shall not search whether it be good or bad, neither shall he change it: and if he change it at all, then both it and the change thereof shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed. These are the commandments, which Yahweh commanded Moses for the children of Israel in mount Sinai.
