Bruce Lages Posted June 1, 2011 at 02:30 AM Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 at 02:30 AM You'll probably get much better answers if you tell us more about this motion. But be aware that no motion described in RONR requires a 75% vote to pass - that would have to come from your rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, there's some more to your question that we're missing, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David A Foulkes Posted June 1, 2011 at 11:27 AM Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 at 11:27 AM Does it need seconder? Per RONR, many (most?) motions require a second but there's a way or two around that.Does it require majority or 75%? Per RONR, no vote of 75% is required for any motion, but that doesn't mean it's always only majority vote.can it be ruled "out of order"? Per RONR, it's quite possible, depending on relevant circumstances at the time.It's also quite likely that you are on to something here. Perhaps Joe Besser could explain it a little better for us.

Josh Martin Posted June 1, 2011 at 05:07 PM Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 at 05:07 PM Does it need seconder?Generally, yes.Does it require majority or 75%?Majority, by default. No motion in RONR requires 75%. Some motions require 2/3, though.can it be ruled "out of order"?If it is out of order, yes. In most cases, a motion will not be out of order solely because previous notice has not been given.As noted, it might help if you provided some additional details.

Where was the first detail?Division of the assembly is a motion, as is a motion to rescind and expunge from the minutes.It's like asking, "Something: is it in order or not?" Well, most of the time it's in order, but certain times it's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
