P.R. Laws tit. 5, § 4447
Within a term of ten (10) days from the date in which said member has been notified of his/her separation, the removed or expelled member may request the Board to include his/her case in the agenda of the next general assembly of members, for said assembly to review the case and decide upon it. The member may appear accompanied by counsel. In case the cooperative is organized by districts, it shall be included in the assembly of delegates.
Any member who deems that he/she has been unjustly expelled and that the lapse of time until the next assembly may cause him/her irreparable harm, may file a petition for review before the Office of the Inspector of Cooperatives within ten (10) days following the date on which he/she is notified of his/her separation. The petition for review filed with the inspector shall not render ineffective the decision of the Board.
