Your board will address the issue when it is formally presented. Gary I personally made no statement of anyone being brought up on charges. There is an ethics committee of which Dan Dwier chairs who with Jamie should look at the situation. If it comes to the board other than by a private complaint, I am sure they would do that as chairs.
