robertsq

The president of the organization put this on the website. The org has always used RONR, but its never been declared officially anywhere. The org even holds RONR seminars for incoming board members to learn RONR.

An organization proclaims on the members only section of its website, that its management and operation regarding board meetings 'follows' Roberts Rules. Yet when the organization is found to adhere to Roberts Rules selectively, when it is opportunistic for their purposes, their defense is they are only required to follow their Bylaws, and not Roberts. Roberts is not mentioned otherwise in the bylaws or elsewhere. Do the members of the organization have an expectation that Roberts Rules and their recommendations will be followed due to the organizations formally stated policy? What if they do not follow Roberts? How have courts decided?
