Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of these Bylaws, amendments to these Bylaws must be approved by the Board of Governors. ARTICLE IX LEGISLATION; AMICUS BRIEFS AND CLE PROGRAMS Section 1. Adoption of Legislative Positions. The Section may propose to support or oppose the adoption of legislation by the Nevada State Legislature only on the following limited terms. The Section's position on legislation must (1) relate closely and directly to the administration of justice; (2) involve matters which are not primarily political and as to which evaluation by lawyers would have particular relevance if not related closely and directly to the administration of justice; or (3) come within the Section's special expertise and jurisdiction. Any proposed legislative position must be adopted by the Section pursuant to the procedures set forth in these Bylaws. A. Upon adoption of a legislative position, the Section shall present the proposed legislative position to the Board of Governors for review. If the Board of Governors approves of the legislative position taken by the Section, the Section may take the legislative position and may assert that the legislative position is endorsed by the State Bar generally or the Board of Governors. 7

8 If, on the other hand, the Board of Governors disapproves of the legislative position taken by the Section, the Section shall not take a position on such matter. If the Board of Governors does not expressly disapprove of the Section's position, or fails to take any action on the Section's legislative position, the Section may, as a State Bar section, seek to influence the legislation if and only to the extent that all such efforts and activities of the Section to influence the legislation are funded entirely from the voluntary contributions of Section Members. Under such circumstances, the legislative action taken by the Section shall be clearly identified as the legislative position of the Section and not that of the State Bar or the Board of Governors. A legislative position statement of the Section to a legislative body must, as a preamble, contain a disclaimer, which shall contain such words and be in such form as may be required or approved by the Board of Governors. Unless otherwise approved by the Board of Governors, the disclaimer shall state as follows: This position is being presented only on behalf of the Real Property Section of the State Bar of Nevada (the "Section"). This position should not be construed as representing the position of the Board of Governors or the general membership of the State Bar. The Section, which takes this position, is a voluntary section of State Bar members composed of lawyers practicing in a specified area of law. This position is taken as a result of a vote of ( ) to ( ) of the Executive Committee of the Section, which is the governing body of that Section. No approval or disapproval of the general membership of this Section has been obtained. This disclaimer shall be filed before the initial presentation of testimony with the clerk of the committee or subcommittee before which testimony is to be presented. Additionally, the disclaimer must be repeated at the beginning of any oral testimony before a committee or subcommittee. If the general membership of the Section has approved the Section's position, the second paragraph of the disclaimer may be omitted. B. Any Section committee may draft or propose to support or oppose the adoption of legislation by the Nevada State Legislature. Any such draft legislation or proposal must be approved by the Executive Committee in accordance with Section A above. No committee of this Section is permitted to present the draft legislation or the proposal to the Board of Governors; only the Executive Committee may do so and only after the draft legislation or proposal is approved by the Executive Committee. The foregoing shall not be deemed to prevent members of the Section or any Section committee from taking a legislative position on their own and identifying themselves as members of the Section or a particular Section committee, provided that such legislative position statement to a legislative body must, as a preamble, contain a disclaimer substantially similar to that set forth in Section A above. 8

9 Section 2. Amicus Curiae Briefs. If the Section wishes to file an amicus curiae brief with any court, it must obtain prior approval from its Executive Committee and, thereafter, prior approval of the Board of Governors, its Executive Committee or member(s) of the Board of Governors appointed by the State Bar President to review amicus requests and final briefs ("BOG Approval"). Such a brief must involve questions relating to the regulation of the profession, improving the administration of justice, or improving the quality of legal services. The subject matter must relate to the mission or practice focus of the Section. A. Section requests to file an amicus brief. A Section request for BOG Approval to file an amicus brief must state whether the Section is filing upon its own volition, at the request of a party to the proceeding or at invitation from the court. The request must be in writing and include a synopsis of the question involved and the posture of the case. The Section may present conflicting points of view in the amicus brief. The request must include a statement noting when the Section authorized the brief according to the Section's bylaws and a list of all individuals participating in writing the brief. B. Approvals of an amicus brief. The Section must provide the completed brief (or near final draft) for BOG Approval. In its introduction, the amicus brief must clearly state that the Section is speaking on its own behalf and not on behalf of the State Bar. C. Extensions of time. The Board of Governors or its Executive Committee may require that the Section obtain an extension of time from the court in order for the Section to obtain any required BOG Approval. Section 3. Presentations to the Board of Governors. The Executive Committee, by and through its officers or any other person designated by the Executive Committee shall present the legislative position or amicus proposal to the Board of Governors on behalf of the Section pursuant to the requirements of Section 1 or 2 of this Article. Section 4. Continuing Legal Education. The Section shall have the goal to provide continuing legal education in the field of law or area of practice emphasized by the Section. However, the Section must coordinate all continuing education activities through the CLE Director and CLE Committee of the State Bar, which has the responsibility of approving any continuing legal education activity sponsored by the Section. Section 5. CLE Event Co-sponsorship with Bar. If the Section seeks co-sponsorship for a CLE event, it shall endeavor to first contact the State Bar s CLE Department. If the CLE Department is unavailable to co-sponsor the seminar event, the Section then may seek cosponsorship with other organizations pursuant to policies for State Bar co-sponsorship of section CLE events. ARTICLE X FINANCES Section 1. Receipts and Expenditures. The State Bar will assess and collect Section dues at the same time that State Bar membership dues are collected; all other Section receipts shall be paid to the State Bar. All Section dues and other receipts shall be used for the purposes of defraying costs and expenses of the Section or such other purposes as the Board of Governors 9

10 may designate. The Section shall not maintain a separate bank account. All expenditures shall be handled by the State Bar. The Accounting Department of the State Bar, in conjunction with the Treasurer of the Section, shall appropriately account for all dues, fees and expenditures in the Section s monthly financial statement provided by the State Bar. Interest on Section accounts accrues to the State Bar s General Fund and is used to offset the administration for State Bar sections. Section programs that utilize additional staff time for programs or services (i.e. CLE or administration) may be charged an additional fee by the State Bar. Section 2. Section Budgets. Each year the Section shall submit its proposed budget to the Board of Governors for approval. Section revenues shall rollover from one year to the next. Section 3. Financial Obligations. The Executive Committee is authorized to approve the payment of all financial obligations of the Executive Committee and the Section. Section 4. Compensation of Expenses. No salary or other compensation shall be paid to any Section Member, EC Member or committee member for performance of services to the Section. However, the Section Members, EC Members or committee members may be reimbursed for such reasonable and necessary telephone expenses, reproduction expenses, travel expenses and other similar out-of-pocket expenses which are incurred as a result of the performance of such services and as are specifically authorized by the Chair or Treasurer or the Executive Committee. Section 5. Donations. The Section may make donations to charitable causes only with the prior approval of the Executive Director of the State Bar. The Executive Director will allow such donations only on a showing by the prospective donor that the donation of Section funds to the charitable entity is related to the purposes for which the Section exists as set forth in the Section s bylaws. ARTICLE XI MISCELLANEOUS Section 1. Action of the State Bar of Nevada. No action of the Section shall be represented or construed as the action of the State Bar of Nevada until the same has been approved by the Board of Governors. Section 2. Actions at meetings not regularly called: Ratification and approval. A. Whenever all persons entitled to vote at any meeting, whether of Section Members or EC Members, consent, either by: (1) A writing on the records of the meeting or filed with the secretary; (2) Presence at such meeting and oral consent entered on the minutes; or (3) Taking part in the deliberations at such meeting without objection, the doings of such meeting shall be as valid as if had at a meeting regularly called and noticed. 10

11 B. At such meeting any business may be transacted which is not excepted from the written consent or to the consideration of which no objection for want of notice is made at the time. C.
