Section 7-1-653. Expulsions and withdrawals; disposition of deposits, interest, shares, or dividends; reinstatement  


Latest version.
  •    (a) At any regular or called meeting of the members, by a two-thirds' vote of those present, the members may expel from the credit union any member thereof. A member may withdraw from a credit union and a nonmember may withdraw deposits as provided in this Code section by filing a written notice of such intention. All deposits of an expelled or withdrawing member or nonmember with any interest accrued shall be paid to such member or nonmember, subject to 60 days' notice, after deducting any amounts due to the credit union by such member or nonmember. A credit union, upon the resignation or expulsion of a member, shall cancel the share, deposits, or dividends or interest due thereon and may apply the withdrawal value of such funds toward the liquidation of such member's indebtedness. Said expelled or withdrawing member or nonmember shall have no further right in said credit union or to any of its benefits, but such expulsion or withdrawal shall not operate to relieve said member or nonmember from any remaining liability to the credit union.

    (b) A member may be expelled for reasons defined in the bylaws by a two-thirds' vote of the board of directors. An expelled member may obtain reinstatement by an affirmative vote of the majority of the members voting at the next annual meeting of the credit union.
