By Kyeland Jackson —

Attorney General Andy Beshear will file another lawsuit against Governor Matt Bevin. This one, over Bevin’s new board of trustees.

Bevin named the new trustees Wednesday. Beshear’s office issued a statement shortly after, referring to the injunction filed against Bevin a week earlier.

“Our legal challenge is not about who will or will not serve on a board of trustees. It is to prevent Gov. Matt Bevin from asserting ‘absolute authority’ to control the board and the university by simply dissolving the board anytime he disagrees with it,” Beshear said in the statement.
