Under Massachusetts General Laws regulating State Chartered Credit Unions; persons who work for or are Directors of another financial institution; or have been convicted of a felony; or have filed for personal bankruptcy or have failed to pay a court judgment; will not be eligible to hold the office of Director for a State Chartered Credit Union. If Board candidates meet any of these conditions, their application for HUECU Directorship will be denied.
