AUTOMATIC SUSPENSION OF DANIEL ELLIS CAMP #3


Section 1:  Effective today, 20 May 2015, I am issuing Department Order #2, Series 2015-2016,
 noting the automatic suspension of Daniel Ellis Camp #3.
              
Section 2:  This is done in accordance with the National Constitution &
Regulations of the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War, as approved 
by the 2014 National Encampment, Chapter I, Camps, Article I, Formation, Section 10 which reads:

“Any camp which fails to file its U.S. Internal Revenue Service 
(“IRS”) Form 990N, or any future replacements for Form 990N, by the date 
specified shall be automatically suspended. The Department Commander shall issue 
a Department Order noting the automatic suspension."  
       
Section 3:  Camp #3’s tax exempt status was revoked by the IRS several years ago.  Camp #3's suspension cannot be lifted, and the Camp returned to full active status until their IRS tax exempt status is restored.  Camp #3 is responsible for working with the IRS to be reinstated, and also for paying all required fees and any Federal/State corporate taxes owed.  The Department of NC is
ready to assist Camp #3 with this process if help is requested.

Section 4:  When under suspension a Camp cannot conduct any business of the Order, other than that which will bring them back into good standing.

           
So Ordered the 20th Day of May, 2015
