In Ct. a private C corp. changed officers and has not informed a 40% shareholder of any meetings to do so. Or any meetings at all.

Look first to your shareholder agreement, contract, or operating agreement to see if there has been a breach.

If you can't figure it out, it's time for a lawyer.

In general, the shareholders do not decide on officers and do not need notification. The shareholders elect board members that make those appointments. As AJ says, the corporate documents (articles of incorporation, bylaws, etc...) will tell for sure.

IF you think you are being left out of the equation then it's well time to gather your docuements and get some paid independent legal counsel as to where you stand and your options.

I assure you that officers and key employees can set up rather interesting benefits for themselves which are not shared with mere stockholders ...but you didn't ask any such question.
