Frankly standards decisions are confidential and should not be discussed publicly.
As stated by KSUViolet, each GLO has its own policies and procedures on appealing a membership cancellation. My org has an Inat'l committee that reviews cancellation appeals. The appeals procedures with the required time line is provided to the member with her notification of cancellation.
Over the years I have seen cancellations overturned but only on technical/procedural grounds, meaning the required procedures were not followed and/or the paperwork was not in order. Often in this case everything is returned to the chapter and the process may be repeated correctly, then resubmitted. I personally have never seen one overturned on cause simply because membership cancellation should only be pursued in extreme situations when there is a strong justifiable cause and there is no other viable option.
