If not, consult legal advice as to whether the superintendent was within his rights to unilaterally withdraw the resignation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J. J. Posted December 22, 2010 at 01:04 AM Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 at 01:04 AM As SG points out, the resignation would be withdrawn, not rescinded.It terms of pure parliamentary procedure, the resignation may be withdrawn with the consent of the majority (p. 284 ff.).Note that if not withdrawn, the resignation would still need a majority to be accepted (p. 277 ff.).[Just expanding on SG's comments, not disagreeing.)
