Court hears State Bar proposal to formalize president-elect candidate process
Summary
The court heard a State Bar proposal to amend Article 5 of the bar’s bylaws to make president-elect requirements similar to at-large bar commissioners, creating a more formal application and notice process; no public opposition was recorded and the court took the proposal under consideration.
The court heard a proposal from the State Bar to amend Article 5 of the bar’s bylaws to formalize the process for president‑elect candidates.
Paul Kramer, representing the State Bar, told the court the change would “make the requirements for president‑elect candidates similar to the requirements for at large bar commissioners,” providing “a more formal process for president‑elect candidates and a more formal notice for president‑elect candidates.” Kramer said the bar appreciated the court’s consideration and invited questions.
The proposal was presented without further debate on the record. The court invited anyone to speak in support of or in opposition to the bylaw amendment; no one rose to speak. The court said it would take the rule under consideration.
The matter will return to the court for further action; no formal vote or adoption occurred at the hearing.
