Does a spouse of who is not listed on the deed of a co-op owner but resides in the co-op,have the right to speak at a meeting.
This is not an official annual or special meeting. More of a Town Hall meeting.
As Mark stated, the non-shareholder spouse would not have any of the shareholder's rights; speaking, voting, or otherwise.
However.... I can think of a situation where the shareholder gives his/her spouse a proxy, power of attorney, or in some other way vests his/her rights in their spouse.
If you anticipate a problem I would suggest you read though your bylaws and consult your board's attorney for what can and cannot be done to maintain control over this situation.

Typically Notices of Special Meetings and Annual Meetings, etc. are served upon Shareholders of the Cooperative and not the roommates of those Shareholders. If the Board has an open door policy, that is one thing, but if you would like to get technical, those 3rd parties have no relevancy to the Cooperative and do not need to be involved in any discussion / do not need to be permitted in the meetings.
