If so, what are those statutory rights and to what extent can they modified?   For example, if an individual has a statutory right to bring a derivative action (file suit) against the organization, can that individual member’s statutory right to bring such an action be limited to, for example, areas where the community had already collectively acted and the Board had not followed that action?  Or would individual members always be allowed to pursue actions in their own right, even where others in the community might not agree?
