By Kyeland Jackson —

U of L fired its chief financial officer Tuesday, marking further fallout from June 8’s scathing audit. Foundation Chair Diane Medley declined to comment if Tomlinson was fired for cause and said the foundation will search for a replacement.

Tomlinson’s termination follows more than a month of speculation, which started when he entered a “mutually agreed-upon leave.” News he was taking paid leave surfaced after June 8’s audit hammered the university, alleging secrecy, purposeful overspending and questionable governance by its former president James Ramsey and his administration.
