Dempsey v. State Retirement Commission
Dempsey v. State Retirement Commission
Opinion of the Court
Petition for review is DENIED. See Shields v. Division of Retirement et al., 352 So.2d 1239 (Fla. 1st DCA 1977).
Concurring Opinion
concurring specially.
I concur with the majority, but only in deference to the doctrine of stare decisis and the majority of another panel of this court. Had I been a member of the panel considering Shields v. Division of Retirement, cited above, I would have agreed with the well reasoned and articulated dissent authored by Judge Rawls. However, I was not a member of that panel and it is clear that the decision in that case is determinative here.
Further, in my view, Shields v. Division of Retirement and this decision affects a class of constitutional or state officers and passes upon a question of great public interest and should therefore be reviewed by the Supreme Court of Florida pursuant to Art. V, Sec. 3(b)(3) of the Constitution of the State of Florida.
