Certain members want him to be allowed back in. Can he return after the year and sign up to be elected back onto the board? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was only suspended for a year, there is no reason he could not return after the year is over and be elected to the board (if he can get the votes), assuming nothing in your rules provides otherwise.

While it is typically allowed that a ban on holding future office may be imposed by discipline, this was apparently not done if the wording of the discipline included only a suspension for a fixed length of time. So yes, he could stand for election again. If those "certain members" who support him comprise a majority of those present and voting, he's golden.
