By Phillip Lentsch–
On July 29, Franklin Circuit Judge Phillip Shepherd issued a temporary block on Governor Matt Bevin’s recently appointed board of trustees at the University of Louisville.
Bevin stripped the previous 17-member U of L board by an executive order in June, stating he had the “absolute authority” to do so.
Shepherd’s ruling stated that Bevin had not “provided a factual or legal basis” to prove his actions had not violated the state constitution.
