jstackpo Posted January 3, 2018 at 01:50 PM Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 at 01:50 PM (edited) Yes. He would (or should) use the motion to "Amend Something Previously Adopted" which is detailed on pages 305ff. He should NOT attempt to make a new motion that simply contradicts all or a portion of the original motion. That would be out of order.

George Mervosh Posted January 3, 2018 at 01:51 PM Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 at 01:51 PM Any member, regardless of how they voted or if they voted on the original motion in question, may move to rescind or amend what was previously adopted, assuming the original motion is still applicable and hasn't been carried out, yes. See RONR (11th ed.), p. 305ff for all of the details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the motion to Amend Something Previously Adopted can be used, and may be moved by anyone. Note that it has a higher threshold for adoption than an ordinary main motion would.
