Friday, March 09, 2007 TOMMY RYAN Parcela I've made 3 posts Send private message to TOMMY RYAN	Can anyone out there please let me know what the criteria is for a proxy vote at a community meeting of owners (EGM) I have received 6 proxy votes from british owners via fax. Someone said to me they will not be counted because they do not have the original signatures on them. Does anybody know the ruling on this. I have read the horizontal property act and it says that a signed proxy is ok, but it does not say it has to be original. Please can anybody help as the EGM is on Monday 12th March. Spam post?

You can only vote at an EGM either if you attend yourself or you nominate a proxy to do so. If you or your proxy is not in attendance then you can't vote.

Without Maria here to give the difinitive answer, I would guess that you need an original copy Tommy. Only a guess though, my experience tells me copies/fax copies of letters do not work with; Banks, Lawyers; Notaries or even a garage when buying a car.

Whether it will work for Tommys poxy vote I dont know but guess he needs to check with the community administrator _______________________ *Smiley* - patrick@marbellamortgages.com www.marbellamortgages.com *Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit .....but any form of wit is an achievement* NO MATTER HOW MUCH MONEY YOU HAVE GOT, IF YOU HAVE NOBODY TO SHARE IT WITH, THEN ITS JUST NUMBERS IN THE BANK.

But, like Smiley says, check if your Administrator will accept it, they may have differing rules.

Doesn't matter what the "law" says, it's only what happens in practice that counts here in Spain. Ryan, check with the admin, or the president (better both, just to be sure). Personally I believe it should be acceptable, so if they seem in doubt, tell them it IS acceptable, and it probably will be! _______________________ "For I am a bear of very little brain, and long words bother me" Winnie the Pooh Spam post?
