Revocation

It is the cancelling of an act, the recalling of a grant or privilege, or the making void of some deed previously existing.

If he did not know of the nonconformity at acceptance, he can revoke only if he can prove he was reasonably induced by the difficulty of discovering the defect or by the seller's assurances.

In some states, the courts allow the seller to set off the price for the time the buyer kept the goods before the revocation.

The previous grantee then loses the right make decisions on the principal's (grantor's) behalf.
