Guest Frank Posted June 29, 2012 at 06:08 PM Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 at 06:08 PM Group Union charges are brought againt 2 Executive members, the board consist of 11 members. My question is, can those two board members vote to except or deny their own charges ? Can they be voting members of the board during their trial if their charges are excepted ?

Gary c Tesser Posted June 29, 2012 at 10:45 PM Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 at 10:45 PM So Frank, please do look carefully at your bylaws, and other documents, to see if there's anything about disciplinary procedures. What JJ says is of course apodictic, but probably not universal. (For heavens sake, look at him. That's the way he dresses to take a shower.)

See RONR (11th ed.), p. 662, ll. 25-31. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See RONR (11th ed.), p. 662, ll. 25-31.They would have to adopt the motion perferring charges. Someone simply proposing a charge is not sufficient.
