Summary
The board entered executive session July 10 to discuss the administrative leave of Sperry Police Officer Jayna Johnson and confidential litigation communications; the board reported no decisions taken in session and later tabled the continued administrative-leave item.
The Board of Trustees of the Town of Sperry entered executive session at 7:42 p.m. on July 10 under Oklahoma law (25 O.S. §307(B)(1) and §307(B)(4)) to discuss personnel matters related to the administrative leave of Sperry Police Officer Jayna Johnson and for confidential communications with the town attorney concerning pending litigation (Louie Bishop v. Town of Sperry, Tulsa County District Court case CJ-2025-02380).
The board recorded that it returned to open session at 7:50 p.m. and that items A and B were discussed with no decisions or votes taken during executive session. Following the executive session, the continued administrative leave of Officer Jayna Johnson was tabled by the board.
The minutes do not provide further details of what was discussed in executive session, consistent with statutory confidentiality for certain personnel and litigation communications. The board's minutes note the statutory authority for the closed session in the agenda item.
