Watson Posted December 20, 2012 at 07:08 PM Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 at 07:08 PM Am tired of reading that, "The motion died for lack of a second." What is the proper form by which this should be entered into the minutes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Edgar Posted December 20, 2012 at 07:22 PM Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 at 07:22 PM Am tired of reading that, "The motion died for lack of a second."What's wrong with it? If a motion can be "adopted" and "lost", why can't it "die"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
