Gottlieb was placed on administrative leave, but if the law and regulations are followed (they won't be but that's what the eventual lawsuit will be about) they can't leave him there forever (archived).
Whoa, months or years to days:
The Office of Personnel Management published a final rule this week on the 2016 Administrative Leave Act, capping how long federal employees can remain on administrative investigative leave to 10 days per year. The regulations clarify how agencies should implement the restrictions on paid administrative leave for employees who are under investigation or awaiting a decision on an adverse personnel action.
Congress passed the legislation as part of the fiscal 2017 National Defense Authorization Act after growing concerns about the costs associated with administrative leave, as well as the long time periods agencies were taking to complete personnel investigations. In 2014, the Government Accountability Office estimated that the salaries of federal employees on paid administrative leave were costing the government $31 million per year.
