Rule 10: Any member of the society's executive committee may be removed from that position by a simple majority vote of the other members of the executive committee present at the monthly executive committee meeting.

Rule 15: Any member bringing a dog, with the exception of an assistance dog, onto the society's premises shall be subjected to a fine of 250.

Rule 16: Any animal brought onto the society's premises by a member of the current executive committee shall be deemed to be a cat, and therefore Rule 15 shall not apply.

Rule 33: All appeals concerning the interpretation or application of these rules shall be considered by the trustees of the society, whose decisions shall be final.

Janine is a member of the Dunderly Social Society, a private member's club (based in Dunderly) whose premises include a clubhouse and private garden. Janine has been charged by the membership secretary for bringing a dog onto the premises, contrary to Rule 15, and fined 250. Janine wishes to challenge the imposition of the fine and appeal to the trustees of the society pursuant to Rule 33.

Janine admits that she took her pet chihuahua onto the premises on the 1 March 2024, but argues that her chihuahua should not be considered a dog due to its diminutive size (1.5 kg) and the fact it was carried in her handbag. In addition, she wishes to argue that she was a committee member at the time of the alleged incident, and therefore according to Rule 16, the chihuahua should be deemed a cat, and, therefore, exempt from Rule 15.

At their February 2024 executive committee meeting, the executive committee of the social society voted by a 4:1 majority (Janine and two other members being absent) to remove Janine from the executive committee for persistent failure to pay her membership dues. Janine argues that because there are eight executive committee members, four members voting in favour does not amount to a majority.

Using a series of IRAC tables for each issue, advise Janine whether the appeal to the trustees is likely to succeed.
