v.
FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE, DIVISION OF EMPLOYMENT SECURITY AND LINDA D. GRANDE, RESPONDENTS

Fla. 1st DCA | 1978-06-29
No. II-329
SMITH, Acting C. J., and ERVIN and MELVIN, JJ., concur.
360 So. 2d 148 Florida District Court of Appeal, First District (1978) Caution
Cited by 12 cases


Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Petitioner, BWS Credit Services, Inc., seeks review, by Petition for Writ of Certio-rari, of an order of the Industrial Relations Commission dismissing petitioner’s appeal on the basis that same was not timely filed.

The adverse referee’s decision which BWS wished to appeal was mailed to BWS on October 24, 1977, accompanied by a notice stating that: “Last date for filing appeal to Industrial Relations Commission: November 3, 1977”. Petitioner’s notice of appeal to the Industrial Relations Commission was postmarked November 4, 1977. Thus, it is apparent that petitioner’s notice of appeal was untimely filed, rendering the decision of the appeals referee final. See Florida State University v. Jenkins, 323 So. 2d 597 (Fla. 1st DCA 1975).

The Petition for Certiorari is DENIED.

SMITH, Acting C. J., and ERVIN and MELVIN, JJ., concur.

The State in turn asserts that this court, in State v. F.W.E., 360 So. 2d 148 (Fla. 1st DCA 1978), has adopted the reasonable suspicion exception for warrantless searches of students by school officials. This is true in certain circumstances.

E., 360 So. 2d 148 (Fla. 1st DCA 1978). However, we do not agree that school officials must have a reasonable suspicion in order to detain a student and take him, as stated in this case, “to be checked out” on the school premises. The stipulated intent to search does…
