Morgan acted outside the scope of their authority when placing President Joe Shirley Jr. on administrative leave. In a six-page order issued Friday, Benally said the court finds that it cannot proceed with the hearing on the president’s request for a temporary restraining order, which under the Sovereign Immunity Act requires at least 20 days notice, since the required time period has not elapsed.
