Archer131 Posted June 2, 2012 at 02:16 PM Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 at 02:16 PM Can a President place an Executive Order which directly violates the Organizations by-laws or a Motion (which are voted on and approved by the membership at a meeting)?Additionally if a President's responsibilities are defined in the organizations by-laws can he claim "Executive Power" and bestow authorities on himself not granted by the bylaws?

Tim Wynn Posted June 2, 2012 at 04:33 PM Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 at 04:33 PM Can the President appoint members to the Board without member a vote?RONR doesn't give the president this authority. Whether there is a board and how members are selected to the board are matters for the bylaws to determine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Ed Posted June 2, 2012 at 04:35 PM Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 at 04:35 PM Can the President appoint members to the Board without member a vote?Only if the By-laws specifically state that the President may do so. Otherwise no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sheri Posted June 2, 2012 at 04:37 PM Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 at 04:37 PM The Bylaws state that all Board members must be elceted by the members. There were four board members resign and the President just put people in the empty spots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
