Guest Maribeth Capuno Posted September 20, 2011 at 11:09 AM Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 at 11:09 AM Is there an established protocol for removal of a board member when he or she has breached a confidential issue or is there a definition of what constitutes a member in "good standing"?

jstackpo Posted September 20, 2011 at 11:25 AM Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 at 11:25 AM Chapter XX outlines how to remove officers -- it ain't easy...In Good Standing:When RONR uses the term "member in good standing" (RONR, p. 6, l. 20-21, p. 279, l. 34-35, & p. 585, l. 7-8) it is referring to a member whose membership rights are not in suspension, either as a consequence of disciplinary proceedings (Chapter XX) or by operation of some specific provision in the bylaws of the organization.Unfortunately, the current edition of the book doesn't actually state this definition (although it was written by a member of the RONR Authorship Team and will appear in RONR/11 due out any day now). So if you use the phrase "in good standing" in the bylaws be sure to define exactly what you mean: what causes a member not to be in good standing, what he has to do to get back into the good graces of the association, &c. Also, you should specify which membership rights, duties, privileges, &c. are lost (or retained) by a member as a consequence of his being in "bad standing" because of a suspension, as distinct from his being in good standing or ceasing to be a member at all.
