Have you tried using Roberts Rules of Order with a strong Pres/principal to muzzle her. If there really are no options tell her that you will re constitute the club without her. Then disband, move on and take it as a lesson learned. Be Well. Irina Sent from my iPad
I would be curious to know what is meant by 'disruptive member''. For example, asking for clarification when you are new might be construed as wasting everyone's time, if you're not new. We sometimes have disagreements but the presiding officer can cut off discussion and ask for a motion from the floor. If the member is off the rails, either a
motion or a second will not be forthcoming and the meeting can proceed.

Mike, Dictionary,com defines "disrupt" as follows: To cause disorder To temporarily destroy the normal continuance of... That could mean habitually showing up late, coming to the meeting unprepared especially if your stock is on the agenda, continually taking the conversation off topic, constantly criticizing others without stepping up themselves, not paying on time causing the treasurer additional work (or a change of routine), or simply drawing attention to themselves by tapping pens, laughing too loudly at everything or speaking over people when someone else has the floor. I've seen all that and more, and it all annoying.
Note I did not include asking questions about every little thing or repeating questions that don't get answered to their understanding, holding a stock watcher/presenter's feet to the fire on their research or opinion of a stock, or being the sole dissenting member on every vote. Those folks may have their annoying moments, but ultimately, their actions benefit the club.
Lynn O. that is very sensible Mike -i am sure that is the answer--cant be to hard on people when they openly want some answers==which is good and curious--let go let God help you out-be kind to others not resentful-give her a chance
