New Members of Nominating Committee<br />
Voted In<br />
The Bar Association of Erie County’s Nominating Committee is tasked with a great responsibility: selecting candidates for future<br />
leadership positions in the Association. The Nominating Committee identifies, researches, and ultimately nominates Board of<br />
Directors candidates to be voted on by the membership. Every year, the Committee works diligently in seeking out qualified members<br />
of our legal community who are willing, ready, and able to lead the Association as it fulfills its mission.<br />
On June 26, the members elected two new members to the Committee: Michael H. Kooshoian and Cheryl Meyers-Buth.<br />

Approve<br />
Amendments to<br />
Bylaws<br />
On June 26, <strong>2020</strong>, the Association membership voted and<br />
approved of amendments to the Association Bylaws. A<br />
summary of the changes is set forth below.<br />
The changes to the Bylaws conform the Bylaws to the most<br />
up to date not for profit legal standards in New York. These<br />
changes principally relate to how meetings are conducted<br />
and are generally technical in nature. The proposed<br />
Bylaws formally identify the role and composition of the<br />
Association’s Executive and Finance Committees. The<br />
Bylaws also identify and provide a role for the Association’s<br />
immediate Past President to sit as an ex- officio non-voting<br />
member of the Executive and Finance Committees. Finally,<br />
the proposed Bylaws eliminate the duties of the Judiciary<br />
Committee to receive, consider and investigate complaints<br />
about the Judiciary.<br />
