member who has not fulfilled his or her duties toward the credit union,; or who has been

convicted of a criminal offense,; or who neglects or refuses to comply with the provisions of this

chapter or of the credit union's by-laws bylaws,; or who habitually neglects to pay debts,; or who

shall become insolvent or bankrupt,; or who shall have deceived the credit union with regard to

the use of borrowed money, but no member shall be expelled until credit union management has

provided the member a notice that member has been informed in writing of the charges against

him or her, and an opportunity has been given to him or her, after reasonable notice, to be heard

by the board of directors. The member shall have the right to file a written appeal to the board of

directors to reconsider the expulsion notice. The written appeal must be filed within ten (10)

business days of the receipt of expulsion notice. No such expulsion shall operate to relieve the

member from any remaining liability to the credit union.

SECTION 2. This act shall take effect upon passage.
