ROLANDO ROBERTO SANCHEZ, M.D., PETITIONER,
v.
STATE, AGENCY FOR HEALTH CARE ADMINISTRATION, RESPONDENT

Fla. 1st DCA | 1995-10-27
No. 95-2548
BARFIELD and ALLEN, JJ., and SHIVERS, Senior Judge, concur.
662 So. 2d 986 Florida District Court of Appeal, First District (1995) Positive Treatment
Cited by 9 cases


Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Rolando Roberto Sanchez petitions for immediate review of an Order of Emergency Suspension of License entered by the Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA). Contrary to Petitioner’s arguments, we conclude that AHCA complied with sections

120.54(9) and 120.60(8), Florida Statutes (1993).

Petitioner also argues that the emergency suspension order is null and void because AHCA was declared to be an unconstitutional body. A panel of this court has certified the issue of the constitutionality of AHCA to be a question of great public importance requiring immediate resolution by the supreme court. Agency for Health Care Administration v. Associated Industries of Florida, Inc., 661 So. 2d 823 (1995). Because the issue raised is pending before the supreme court, we decline to rule on this issue and certify it to be one of great public importance.

BARFIELD and ALLEN, JJ., and SHIVERS, Senior Judge, concur.
