Shareholder consent is often a defined term in the Shareholders' Agreement, and it is often defined as a percentage, say, 100% of shareholders are needed to consent to certain actions.
Whilst the directors control the day to day running of the company, shareholders have the right to vote on key decisions. These include the decision to remove directors in some cases, change the rights attaching to shares or wind up the company. You may also have the right to share in the profit that the company makes.
A Shareholders' Consent to Action Without Meeting, or a consent resolution, is a written statement that describes and validates a course of action taken by the shareholders of a particular corporation without a meeting having to take place between directors and/or shareholders.

For key company decisions, a company often needs to seek the approval of its board of directors or shareholders. A company resolution is formal approval of certain decisions made by the board or company shareholders who are entitled to vote on the matter at hand.

A Stockholder Consent is the authorization of stockholders to carry out a specific corporate action. For example, a Stockholder Consent is used to elect or remove a member of the Board of Directors, approve a merger, and implement a Stock Incentive Plan (SIP).
To legally remove a shareholder, first review the corporation's shareholders' agreement and bylaws, as these often outline procedures for removal. If no specific terms exist, consider negotiating a buyout with the shareholder or, if necessary, seeking legal action, ensuring compliance with state laws.
