Guest Dr. Daniel Ginsberg Posted May 22, 2011 at 03:51 AM Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 at 03:51 AM I am having a battle with an attorney who insists that bylaws is spelled by-laws with a hyphen. I say it is without a hyphen: bylaws. Who is right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say it is without a hyphen: bylaws. Who is right?No hyphen.Use of the hyphen is now obsolete.Why are you not referring to a dictionary for a question regarding spelling?
