Opinion
No. 63592.
June 7, 1984.
Application for Review of the Decision of the District Court of Appeal — Direct Conflict of Decisions, Fifth District — Case No. 82-1104.
Phillip P. Quaschnick, General Counsel; Vernon Townes Grizzard and Thomas W. Young III, Asst. General Counsels and Cynthia D. Morani, Staff Counsel, Public Employees Relations Commission, Tallahassee, for petitioner.
Charles R. Fawsett of Rock, Fawsett Elliott, Orlando, for respondent.
The Fifth District Court of Appeal issued an unpublished order which held "that the Public Employees Relations Commission is not, and because it is the forum from which this appeal is sought will not be, a party to this appeal." We have jurisdiction. Art. V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const. The order under review is quashed on the authority of Public Employees Relations Commission v. City of Orlando, 452 So.2d 517 (Fla. 1984), where we held that PERC is a proper party in proceedings to review PERC's own orders.
It is so ordered.
ALDERMAN, C.J., and ADKINS, BOYD, OVERTON, McDONALD, EHRLICH and SHAW, JJ., concur.
