TITLE 14 CORPORATIONS, PARTNERSHIPS, AND ASSOCIATIONS

Section 3. Nonprofit Corporations, 14-3-101 through 14-3-1703.

ARTICLE 6 MEMBERSHIP

14-3-601. Authority to establish criteria or procedures for membership.

  1. The articles or bylaws may establish criteria or procedures for admission of members.
  2. No person shall be admitted as a member without his or her consent.

(Code 1981, §14-3-601, enacted by Ga. L. 1991, p. 465, § 1; Ga. L. 2004, p. 508, § 68.)

COMMENT

This section is taken from the Model Act. Section 14-3-302(16) permits nonprofit corporations to admit members and to establish conditions for membership. Any person (as broadly defined in section 14-3-140(23) to include both individuals and entities) may be a member. Under subsection (b), however, a person cannot become a member without that person's express or implied consent. Consent may be implied, for example, by acceptance of membership benefits knowing that the benefits are offered only to members.
