"Past President" Defined

[Guest H.Wm.Mountcastle]

RONR makes no reference to "past presidents", immediate or otherwise, so I'm afraid you're on your own.

But the mere fact that this person resigned would not seem to affect his status as the immediate past president. Isn't he the person"

[Guest David Levaton]

Thank you, your insight and quick response is very helpful.

If your bylaws do not define a role for a "past president", then there is none. Period. "

<<If your bylaws do not define a role for a "past president", then there is none.>>

But apparently they do; not just for the IMNEDIATE past, but the THREE MOST RECENT past."

[Guest dan]

OK, I see that now. I just read the part that said bylaws are silent. Not one, not two -- but THREE. Must be some sort of record."

Ameliorating the usual problems encountered with just one immediate past president.

Whew! What a way to dodge that bullet."

[Guest Weldon Merritt]

<<Ameliorating the usual problems encountered with just one immediate past president.>>

Or multiplying them by three."

[Guest Robert B. Fish]

Note that not only does the resigning president take a seat on the board as one of "three most immediate past presidents" but one of the current three loses his/her seat.
