Guest Julie Posted July 13, 2016 at 08:59 PM Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 at 08:59 PM When the club's slate of officers for the upcoming year (as compiled by the nominating committee) is past the deadline for distribution to the membership, does that deem the slate null and void? Our club Bylaws do not specify what the penalty is for a slate not being out to the membership by the deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hieu H. Huynh Posted July 13, 2016 at 10:11 PM Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 at 10:11 PM There could be nominations from the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Brown Posted July 13, 2016 at 10:50 PM Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 at 10:50 PM I agree with Mr. Huynh's statement that there can still be nominations from the floor. Depending on the exact language of your bylaw provision or rule regarding notifying the membership of the list of nominees, it might not be too late to notify the membership of the nominees and the fact that it is late may not "invalidate" the nominations. It might also be permissible for the nominating committee to present its nominees at the meeting. Check your bylaws and special rules of order for the exact language. It is ultimately up to your organization to interpret its own bylaws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
