Absentee Proxies - BBCA Jun 08, 2017

You need to check with a lawyer, but NY BCL Section 609 provides that a shareholder can act at any shareholder meeting by proxy.

If the shareholders are calling a meeting to amend the By-Laws or Prop Lease or do anything else of substance, you should definitely have a lawyer to advise the Board/Shareholders and make sure the proper procedures are followed.
