Corporate Governance Legal Questions and Answers

Corporate Governance

Certificates of Incorporation

New York

Asked on Dec 25, 2024

Can a company amend its Articles of Association to remove a director without their consent?

I am a shareholder in a small company and there has been ongoing conflict between the directors, resulting in a breakdown in communication and decision-making. One of the directors has become uncooperative and is hindering the progress of the company. I want to know if it is possible for the company to amend its Articles of Association in order to remove this director without their consent, and what legal steps need to be taken to do so.

Damien B.

Answered Dec 26, 2024

In New York, a business corporation is formed by filing a Certificate of Incorporation under Section 402 of the Business Corporation Law (BCL). The Certificate typically does not include the names of directors. The corporation’s bylaws outline the procedures for electing and removing directors, and shareholders often enter into a shareholders' agreement to address governance matters. To remove a director, the process is generally governed by the bylaws. If no bylaws exist, the BCL provides that removal usually requires a majority vote of the shares entitled to elect directors, unless a higher threshold is specified in the Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws.

Corporate Governance

Corporate Resolution

Texas

Asked on Sep 24, 2024

Can a corporate resolution be revoked or amended after it has been adopted?

I am the CEO of a small corporation and recently our board of directors adopted a corporate resolution to authorize a significant business transaction. However, since then, new information has come to light that suggests the transaction may not be in the best interest of the company. I am wondering if it is possible to revoke or amend the corporate resolution that was previously adopted in order to prevent the transaction from moving forward.

Lorraine C.

Answered Oct 29, 2024

I would highly recommend you have an attorney review this issue for you. There are many questions that require resolution prior to knowing whether the board’s action can be amended or revoked, including what your company’s foundational documents say about the powers of the board and the CEO. Further, without reading the resolution, I am not able to determine whether the board resolution simply allows the course of action if determined prudent (in which case, no modification necessary) or if the board is actually mandating the course of action. Regardless, a competent attorney should be able to advise you. I would be happy to assist if you like.

Resolutions

New York

Asked on May 5, 2025

Are resolutions legally binding?

I am a board member of a non-profit organization, and we recently passed a resolution to implement new policies and procedures for our members. However, some members are questioning the enforceability of these resolutions and whether they have any legal standing. We want to ensure that the resolutions we pass are legally binding and can be enforced if necessary. Can you please clarify the legal status of resolutions and their enforceability?

Megan B.

Answered May 6, 2025

Hello, the answer to this question largely depends on the organization's governance documents. If the Board properly passes a resolution, there is no law that says it must take that action, but generally I would recommend passing a further resolution to undo the action if the Board otherwise decides not to implement the action. Make sense?

Board Consent

California

Asked on Oct 8, 2024

Can a board of directors make decisions without unanimous consent?

I am a member of a non-profit organization's board of directors, and we have been facing challenges regarding decision-making and consent. Currently, our bylaws state that all decisions must be made with unanimous consent from the board members. However, this requirement has proven to be cumbersome and has resulted in a lack of progress on important matters. I am wondering if it is legally permissible for our board to make decisions without unanimous consent, and if so, what steps we need to take to update our bylaws to reflect this change.

Dolan W.

Answered Oct 18, 2024

Hello! I'm so sorry you are having to deal with this. So generally the answer to your question is no; if the bylaws state that there must be unanimous consent from the board, then there isn't a way for the board to make decisions without this consent. What you guys would need to do is have a vote to change the bylaws that something like a majority or 2/3 vote is sufficient moving forward.

Corporate Governance

Articles of Association

Ohio

Asked on Jun 30, 2024

Can a company amend its Articles of Association without shareholder approval?

I am a shareholder in a company and recently discovered that the company has amended its Articles of Association without seeking shareholder approval. I am concerned about this as I believe that shareholders should have a say in changes that affect their rights and interests. I would like to know if it is legally permissible for a company to make such amendments without shareholder approval, and if not, what actions can I take to address this issue?

Darryl S.

Answered Jun 30, 2024

Amending a company's Articles of Association typically requires shareholder approval. The specific requirements can vary depending on the jurisdiction and the company's governing documents. You'll need to carefully review those documents and speak with an attorney about next steps if the amendment was not properly executed.
