Bylaws Amended
On November 29, 2012, the MSBA Immigration Section voted to amend its bylaws, Article III, Section 2 and the following Amendment passed:
“There shall be a Section Council, the voting members of which shall consist of the officers and sixteen (16) voting members-at-large (which shall include one ( 1) “academic” member who shall be associated, either full or part-time as a professor, with the Immigration Law programs and/or clinics at a university, college or law school in the state of Maryland). Any past chair may seek a position as officer or Council member-at-large and may become a voting member of the Council for as long as the past chair holds a position of officer or Council member-at-large. At the conclusions of any term as officer or Council member-at-large, a past chair automatically reverts to a non-voting member of the Council.” |
