Legal Question in Business Law in Nebraska

Question about Board of Directors meetings for non-profits
I am a member of an NPO. Recently after being voted into a position over a long-time holder of that office by the BOD, I find myself constantly under attack for supposed violations of protocols that are non-existant.

Recordkeeping is a primary duty of this position as well as training and overseeing volunteers. The last office holder took over 1 year after my appointment to give me access to his records kept in a locked cabinet on property

The records when I inherited them had gaps of 2,3,4, or more years. I have been keeping the records in an up to date fashion either on my laptop(until I obtained access to his) or in paper form at the organisation's HQ, bringing them into sync on a monthly basis.

The records had until my tenure been kept under lock and key - now that is being argued as inappropriate.

Now if I miss a BoD meeting, my detractors call for closed sessions and begin to make motions in my abscence regarding my removal and supposed lack of proper record-keeping.

First can a BoD member be not informed of all BoD actions even from a closed session?

Second do I have to endure the constant accusations about my performance?

Third The records in question contain driving records should they be public?

Re: Question about Board of Directors meetings for non-profits

Well, the board can do about whatever they want. If there's a record keeping issue maybe it's a job for the accountants if money's involved.

If you have a remedy for anything here it's a civil suit.
