PER CURIAM.
We granted review of the decision of the District Court of Appeal, Fifth District, in Odham v. Petersen, 398 So. 2d 875 (Fla. 5th DCA 1981), because of direct and express conflict with Phipps v. Board of Adjustment, 388 So. 2d 317 (Fla. 4th DCA 1980). The Fifth District’s decision also conflicts with our recent decision in City of Deerfield Beach v. Vaillant, 419 So. 2d 624 (Fla.1982), wherein we held that where full review of administrative action is given in the circuit court as a matter of right, one appealing the circuit court’s judgment is not entitled to a second full review in the district court, but rather may seek review by petition for writ of certiorari.
We disapprove only that portion of the Fifth District Court’s decision which conflicts with Vaillant. The other points raised by petitioners are insufficient to warrant a quashing of the district court’s decision.
Accordingly, we approve the result reached by the Fifth District’s decision.
It is so ordered.

When a lawyer testifies falsely under oath, he defeats the very purpose of legal inquiry. Such misconduct is grounds for disbarment. The Florida Bar v. Manspeaker, 428 So. 2d 241 (Fla.1983). We agree with the referee’s finding of mitigating circumstances, and but for his findings, this would be a case for disbarment: There are mitigating circumstances regarding Respondent’s conduct as well. There was mention at trial that…

We finally address the argument made by the City that the circuit court improperly imposed a higher burden of proof on it than the law allows.

City OF Port Orange, 518 So. 2d 311 (Fla. 5th DCA 1987)…the requirements for a special exception have been met, the zoning authority must grant the special exception unless it finds that such would adversely affect the public interest.
