Legal Liability In Expulsion

Summary

If you did not vote to expel a member, your liability may be limited to that action. However, other roles or interactions as a director could still impact your liability. Changing your vote from abstain to yes could increase your liability by directly involving you in the decision. Redoing the vote process might address procedural issues but consider its implications on legal proceedings. Consult your lawyer for personalized advice.
