My apology for not starting this as a new topic. I will certainly read the guidelines and comply. Thank you. I made yet another mistake by filling out a 'report', instead of the reply. The Board member submitted the resignation toward the end of the mtg. The President said that the Board would not accept the resignation; this was said in the context that she/they did not want the member to resign. After several other members later made a plea for the member to reconsider, the member withdrew the resignation in writing about 7 days before the next Board meeting. In the meantime, others on the Board in favor of the resignation are campaigning, and are looking into ways to make it happen. So it is a divided Board now. Question is what possible actions could the opposition take to make it happen?

An officer of a Board submits notice of resignation from the Board at a regular meeting. The resignation is not accepted by the Board at that time; no motion, no vote. The officer laters decides to withdraw the resignation - more than 6 days before the next Board meeting. The ByLaws are silent. How is the withdrawal handled? Can the Board reject the withdrawal and under what circumstances? If the withdrawal is rejected, can the Board then vote on the original resignation? Maggiezz
