Message: [QUOTE="PoppyHart, post: 422689, member: 515"] I think its likely a matter of first impression, as they in the law. In what other situations are entities potentially suing each other for damages caused by a desire to flee a voluntary membership in non-profit organization. Would you get sued if your country club's board of trustees raised dues and you left the following month? In general, I think exit fees are acceptable mechanisms, but I think the timing (after the school year started), their refusal to accept the terms of the increase, and their quick reaction (leaving 2 months later) certainly weigh in their favor. In all the other conference realignment situations, I believe the exit fees were in place for several years. [/QUOTE]
