Standing Board Policy 300

An elected member of the Board of Governors shall attend at least 50 percent (50%) of the Board meetings held during the Bar year, unless his/her attendance is otherwise excused by the secretary. The burden of seeking and establishing an excused absence shall be upon the Board member. A written request to the Secretary for an excused absence shall be made within thirty (30) days prior to or after the missed meeting. Should an elected Board member fail to meet the attendance requirement, the position shall become vacant, and the president of the State Bar shall fill the unexpired term by appointment.
