Guest Gary Cooper Posted October 3, 2013 at 03:23 AM Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 at 03:23 AM Once a motion is voted upon and has passed can the motion be reconsidered and voted upon at a later date? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Harrison Posted October 3, 2013 at 03:33 AM Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 at 03:33 AM Maybe. See RONR pp. 305-310 which discusses Rescind/Amend Something Previously Adopted and pp. 315-336 which discusses the motion to Reconsider which has a very limited time frame when it can be used.

Josh Martin Posted October 3, 2013 at 03:13 PM Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 at 03:13 PM Once a motion is voted upon and has passed can the motion be reconsidered and voted upon at a later date? The motion to Reconsider has a very narrow window of opportunity - it must be made during the same meeting, or during the meeting on the next business day in a multiple day convention. The motions to Rescind and to Amend Something Previously Adopted, however, have no such time limit. They are in order so long as the motion has not been fully carried out.

David A Foulkes Posted October 4, 2013 at 12:12 PM Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 at 12:12 PM Oh, sorry JD, I was playing off Josh's typo. A little too subtle, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
