Overruling an Action Made By the Chair

[Guest John]

If the Chair has overrule a properly made motion, A Motion to Take the Meeting Out of Order for a Specific Purpose, Can that action by the chair be rescinded by motion made to Rescind the Chair's Action?

Thank You.

[Larry Cisar]

Best to raise a point of order that the chair cannot ignore a properly made motion. If the chair rules against that, appeal.(Needs a second) If the chair refuses to put the appeal to a vote, put it to a vote yourself.

[Tim Wynn]

If the chair rules a motion out of order, any two members (one making the appeal and one seconding it) can appeal from his decision, thereby turning the matter over to the judgement of the assembly, a majority in the negative being required to overturn the ruling of the chair. See RONR (10th ed.), Section 24.
