Guest Ralph Posted September 8, 2021 at 12:49 PM Report Share Posted September 8, 2021 at 12:49 PM I attend a meeting last night where the person conducting the meeting stated that as per Roberts Rules, he would decide if the officer not attending the meeting was an excused or non-excused reason for missing the meeting. After some research, I have found no such rule for conducting a meeting. Is this a true statement for conducting a meeting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a result, there is no need to determine what reason officers have for not attending a meeting, let alone determining whether such a reason is "excused." If any such rules exist, they would need to be in your organization's own rules, not Robert's Rules of Order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
