Special Meeting

Special Meeting, Notice

From the book The Clergyman’s Hand-book of Law, about Special Meeting, Notice (1): When a meeting is special, the notice must state for what purpose the meeting is called. If it fails to do so it is void, and unless all the members are present and consent to the holding of the meeting, all business transacted is illegal and void.322 Notice of a special meeting that states one specific purpose for which it is called, and then states “to transact any other business that may legally come before the meeting,” is not good for any purpose except the one specified.323
