Unallotment litigation
On December 30, 2009 Gearin served notice to Governor Tim Pawlenty that his use of the gubernatorial power known as "unallotment" to balance the budget in 2009 may have been unconstitutional. The governor faulted Gearin for "inserting herself in a political dispute". [2] She also granted a temporary restraining order to reinstate $5.3 million in funds for a nutrition program for elderly and disabled people. [3]
