## What do you think? Question:

![condo-board-term-limits.jpg](http://www.condoassociation.com/hs-fs/hubfs/condo-board-term-limits.jpg?width=320&name=condo-board-term-limits.jpg "condo-board-term-limits.jpg")My condo board has, for six consecutive years, ignored the bylaws ammendment recorded in 2009, which states they are can only serve for two years.

The condo attorney says that the FL statute §718.112(2)(d) cancels any limit on condo board terms. A group of owners have read this statute, and we cannot find anything about this statute cancelling any bylaws on limits to board terms.

We have new elections in Jan 2016.  What we can do to stop them from running again? 

Our condo is in bankruptcy there are no reserves and no money in petty cash, not even to replace a light bulb.

Can we, the owners, stop the elections if they run again, and run with new candidates?
