Not unlike other corporations whose ruling body are their boards (shareholders notwithstanding for these purposes) and have the right to remove members or employees for various reasons, and have no checks within the corporation.  The checks are the government, in the court system.

Drawing a conclusion from what you have written, this means that the BoD can,
for "various reasons" chose to remove a person who is fighting for changes
within the scope of the power of the board making it so the only way we can
change anything be to invoke the incorporation laws in California, since that is
where the SCA is incorporated. In fact, I think that is what is happening, hence
my reason for starting this thread.
