Definition : Mandator

Person who gives a mandate to another (the mandatary) to represent him in the performance of a legal act with a third party. A co-owner (the mandator) may grant to a mandatary the power to represent him at a general meeting of co-owners. This power and, if need be, the writing that records it, is called a proxy. The mandator may revoke the mandate he has granted at any time.
