Thank you Mr. Brown..you have answered my question. 

There is nothing is in our bylaws that supports that the motion adopted was out of order.

The Regional Phylacter is an elected position within our organization. It holds a level of authority due to only being a position members can go to for inquiry.

The motion was related to withholding monies raised for our Chapters Charitable Arm until report of Finacial Audit is received.  The Charitable Arm is requesting the money without the Financial Audit.  The members were told that requesting and audit and withholding the funds was ‘ out of order’ .  This member is a chapter where our organization has members working on three level which includes local, Regional, and National.  A member can hold hold an office at any level of the organization  be it appointed or elected.

A motion which passed over six months ago was recently bought to the floor at a yesterday by a member stating the motion was out of order when passed.  Thereby, it is null and void and does not exist. There was no discussion by the body because this person holds an higher position as a Regional Phylacter.  I have searched ROR 11th edition but can not find rule.  Is this true? And where can I locate in ROR.

Thank You.
