D. Yearly Meeting Action

The Yearly Meeting appoints a committee, which examines into and adjudges the nature of the offense and the proceedings in the case. It considers fully the statement of the case by the appellant and the testimony of the respondents (the local Spiritual Life Ministries Committee) and examines also the minutes of the meeting recording the case. It then reports its judgement to the Yearly Meeting. The decision of the Yearly Meeting is final. The Clerk notifies the appellant of this action in writing and reports the performance of this duty to the next session of the Yearly Meeting.
