Sample output
Quorum requirements for boards of directors.
This sample is drawn from the actual Southern Edition question brief Quorum Requirements: Board of Directors, generated April 20, 2026. The brief covers seven Southern states, marks six as addressed and one as partially addressed, and turns the question into a reusable comparative answer.
- Georgia: Most cooperative types can define quorum in their bylaws, while credit unions require a majority of directors and utility cooperatives require a majority of directors plus at least 10 percent of voting members for member meetings. Citations include 7-1-656 and 46-3-296.
- Louisiana: Agricultural, seafood, and credit union statutes leave quorum more flexible through bylaws, while educational and electric cooperatives set a five percent member quorum unless adjusted. Citations include 17:2809 and 12:408.
- Texas: Most cooperative types leave board quorum to the bylaws, while credit unions impose a more specific governance standard for bylaw or charter amendment actions. Citations include 251.053, 52.052, and 122.011.
The brief pairs a state findings summary with a full appendix of citations by state, so the answer can be reviewed, shared, and reused without losing the statutory basis.
