FootNotes


1. The sole nominee for vice president was found not eligible to run for vice president since he had not paid dues for 24 continuous months prior to nominations as required Article VI, Section 3 of the National Emergency Medical Services Association (NEMSA) bylaws. The position of vice president was therefore deemed vacant. Pursuant to Article VIII, Section 4(D. the NEMSA bylaws, the president shall, subject to the approval of the entire Board of directors, fill a vacant officer position. Amended Judgment
