Colorado Community Media: Colorado courts appear to be silent on the legality of meetings often called “serial meetings, “walking quorums” or “daisy-chain meetings” and whether they violate the state’s open meeting laws.

A lawsuit against the Douglas County Board of Education seeks to get an answer.

On Feb. 4, roughly an hour before a hurriedly called special meeting of the Douglas County School Board, Highlands Ranch resident Robert Marshall filed a lawsuit against the board and its conservative majority members — Mike Peterson, Becky Myers, Christy Williams and Kaylee Winegar.
