Who would sue a nonprofit?
Generally lawsuits come from members, donors, 3rd parties, employees and government entities.
A local Maryland non profit was recently sued for operating outside of their charter. Another entity is being sued because it is alleged that they attempted to influence legislation which jeopardized their non profit status with the IRS.
A simple trip and fall incident on the premises could cost you hundreds of thousand of dollars.
Recently a lady was in a hurry to leave a Pasadena, MD fraternal organization and went out a back door marked emergency exit. She slipped on the curb and fractured her ankle in multiple places. She later sued stating that there was no lighting outside of the door which is what caused her to trip and fall. Lawsuit was settled for $150,000. Thankfully, the organization had insurance that covered this loss.
