Court dismisses appeal against board members' liability, upholding their right to extra work compensation despite procedural violations.

The Court of Appeal overturned the lower court's dismissal of the appellants' claim, ruling that the board members were not personally liable for damages despite procedural violations. The court found that the appellants' actions, while technically non-compliant with statutes and governance codes, did not constitute serious misconduct warranting personal liability. Consequently, the appellants were ordered to pay the foundation for their legal costs and the extra work fees they had previously received were confirmed as valid.
