Re: Replacing the CEO

Generally, the rules governing the appointment and/or removal of officers are stated in the Regulations of the LLC. However, look also in the Articles of Organization as well.

Unless you cna demonstrate the officer is guilty of malfeasance, dishonesty, fraud, etc. you will have difficulty. Incompetence probably won't do it. In any event it will probably take litigation as he is in control. Larry Maun 713.266.2560

If there is no mechanism for replacement in the Operating Agreement for the LLC, you'll have to sue to have the CEO removed for some misfeasance or malfeasance. Simple bad judgment is not sufficient.
