... next round the "Sweet 16" or the "Elite 8"?

Dear Commission Members,
Since you did not appear to be cross-copied on the original March 26, 2024 letter from the Commission Chair; we are forwarding it to you with inserts [link to post] which reflect the "normal" reading of NC credit union law by impartial minds.
As representatives of your fellow citizens, we hope you will take the time to ask competent counsel to review your authority under N.C. law with you prior to the April 9, 2024 Commission Meeting.
And please, ask independent counsel to simply address the following three questions. These questions are solely to confirm the Administrator's scope of authority under North Carolina law. The questions do not relate to any appeal, nor complaint, and do not represent a "legal opinion" to any outside party - just you.
1) Is the NC Administrator of Credit Unions required by law to approve,
monitor, and enforce compliance by state-chartered credit unions with
bylaws? Y/N
2) May a NC state-chartered
credit union adopt rules, policies, and procedures which effectively
amend its bylaws without approval by the NC Administrator of Credit Unions ? Y/N
3) Does the NC Administrator of Credit Unions permit NC credit unions to deny eligible, qualified members the right to
seek self/membership nomination to serve on the credit union board?
Y/N
It would be difficult for Commissioners to fulfill their legal duty to the citizens of North Carolina, if you were not fully aware of the Administrator's powers and your authority under N.C. law, wouldn't it?
We all are expected to obey the law. How would better informing your fellow citizens with these answers not be of benefit? What is the problem here?
Why is the Credit Union Division and the Attorney General's staff afraid of publicly posting "Speed Limit" signs. Why are we required to guess?
Sincerely,
Jean and Jim Blaine

... what is going on? Your guess...
