Every one of them has language that forbids wholesaling/retailing. And they also are not shy about putting some real teeth into some of their codes. More than I would EVER presume to include in ours.... I don't understand why an attorney would say such a thing as it being illegal....it's OUR club....was this attorney perhaps working for Hunte on the side? I back Jamie, (as I always do). We had two very good attorneys on our board who said restrictive language is fine. I said so, and I litigate the rights of 401C corporations all the time. The only person who told the club they couldn't do it, was the attorney hired to deal with Mr. Hunte. She did have a number of opinions that I listened to and agreed with. This was not one of them. The attorney dealing with Hunte's attorney was convinced by Mr. Hunte's attorney of a number of things. That was her opinion and our board rejected Kris and Margy, and went with her. That was unfortunate. Now, we should allow Jamie to build the code we need, and one that will avoid the problem in the future.
