Default S Corp problem

hello,

i am equal partners in a S-CORP located in orlando that deals in phone sales.
we have 1 partner that works out of CT. my position entails answering phone calls and handling computer software problems.
i have been in orlano for two years.
now, due to family concerns i have decided to return to CT. i could work remotely via computer connection and phone. i have MS (MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS) and am limited to what i can and cannot do.
i feel this is a fair resolution being that my doctors and my young autistic son are all in CT.
the partners are divided on the issue. they feel it would not be practical to have another remote office. i see no reason why it would not work.
where do i stand legally on this issue?
can i fight it legally if i get voted down?

thanks
brian

Cool

Doesn’t sound like you can. S corporations are just like C or your more traditional corporations in their operations and structure. Decisions are made by a Board appointed by the shareholders. Employment and work related issues are decided by that Board or officers appointed by that Board. Your ownership rights in the company does not guarantee you the right of employment there. The only potential other option you have is if you think you have a discrimination case against them. However, it doesn’t sound like you do from your post.

Good luck!
