Guest Ron Posted September 24, 2014 at 01:05 PM Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 at 01:05 PM If a director has been appointed for 1 year, is the next person to fill that position elected or still apointed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgar Guest Posted September 24, 2014 at 01:07 PM Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 at 01:07 PM What do your bylaws say about how directors are chosen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ron Posted September 24, 2014 at 04:40 PM Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 at 04:40 PM The By-laws only address appointed directors in the beginning. There is nothing that addresses after their term has expired. Obviously a flaw, but that is the way it is. That is why I proposed the question. Is there a precident for this?

Edgar Guest Posted September 24, 2014 at 04:44 PM Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 at 04:44 PM The By-laws only address appointed directors in the beginning. In the beginning? Perhaps I should have asked, not how your directors are chosen, but who chooses your directors. If one person (e.g. the president) has the authority to select directors than he can "appoint" them. If, on the other hand, a group (e.g. the general membership) has the authority to select directors then, assuming there's more than one candidate, they would "elect" them. Think of an election as a method of appointing someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ron Posted September 24, 2014 at 06:55 PM Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 at 06:55 PM OK, the appointees were done by the elected board. So the new board would do the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What "we" want to know is, "What is the rule which controls how that party ("director"?) gets into that given position (which is unknown, as Ron never stated what the position was)."i.e., what should have happened, or what ought to happen now.

Kim Goldsworthy Posted September 24, 2014 at 08:09 PM Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 at 08:09 PM That is what I WAS TRYING TO FIND OUT??Q. So, you have no written rule? Q. What is the POSITION to which the director was appointed? Was it to a committee? Q. Who did the original electing/apponting? -- And what rule authorized that party to do so?

Edgar Guest Posted September 24, 2014 at 08:11 PM Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 at 08:11 PM What is the POSITION to which the director was appointed? I'm assuming it was to the position of . . . director. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible that your board chooses its own members but it's more usual to have the general membership select the members of the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'm understanding correctly that your bylaws provide that the board elects its own directors, then yes, the new board would do the same.
