"Power of attorney" merely gives you the right to administer the affairs of another person. Probate court is a government arm and holds true power over decedents estates---they have the real power.

Neither AND both. The probate court ONLY has authority AFTER death. The Attorney in Fact (person to whom the POA was given) ONLY has authority BEFORE death. They two NEVER had authority at the same time.

power of attorney is a writ giving someone legal power over a specific action or individual, probate is a type of court dealing with property, estates or marriage, etc.
