Dismissal of Board President


Guest MIKE JACKSON

Recommended Posts

When a special meeting is called to dismiss an Officer does that Officer have to be notified or can the remaining Board just hold meeting and vote to remove Officer without notice.

THIS IS SOME HISTORY OF EVENTS, I AM PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD AND THE VP OF BOARD CALLED A SPECIAL MEETING, SOME DIRECTORS WERE ONLY GIVEN 30 MINUTES NOTICE AND THE TREASURER AND SECRETARY WERE NOT IN ATTENDANCE. VP CHAIRED AND TOOK NOTES. MOTION TO DISMISS PRESIDENT (ME) WAS CALLED, SECONDED AND A VOTE WAS TAKEN AND NOT BY "SECRET BALLOT". THE MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY, BUT SINCE ONE DIRECTOR HAS TOLD ME THEY FELT THREATENED BY THUG-LIKE ATTITUDES OF OTHER DIRECTORS SO THEY WENT ALONG WITH VOTE. TWO OF THE DIRECTORS DID NOT UNDERSTAND WHY PRESIDENT WAS NOT IN ATTENDANCE TO SPEAK, SO THEY THOUGHT THIS MAY HAVE BEEN MY REQUEST. BUT IT WAS NOT, THIS IS A POWER MOVE, BECAUSE MOST OF THE BOARD HAS DIFFERENCES OF OPINION WITH MINE.

I DO NOT WANT THE POSITION AT THIS TIME, DUE TO THIS ISSUE BUT DO NOT WANT THEM TO GET AWAY WITH ILLEGAL MEETING AND DISMISSAL IF THAT IS WHAT HAPPENED, SO NOT TO SET PRECEDENCE FOR FUTURE DIRECTORS. A MAJORITY OF THE STOCKHOLDERS HAVE CALLED ME AND DO NOT WANT ME TO LEAVE BUT I CAN NOT CONTINUE WITH THIS BOARD. I HAVE ATTACHED SOME SECTIONS OF OUR BY-LAWS.
