Roberts is a guide for any organization who wants to know what is recommended for an organization. However, nothing "trumps" the by-laws of an organization other than laws passed by the legislature of the state or National laws. Roberts is nothing other than a guide book. Some companies incorporate Roberts for something not covered by the by-laws. But, Roberts never overrides the by-laws.
