Notes of Decisions

Judicial Review Appropriate

The court had the authority to review an employer’s compliance with a settlement agreement entered into pursuant to employe’s equal employment and opportunity complaint. News-Chronicle Co. v. Human Relations, 672 A.2d 400 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1996).

Court could not exercise jurisdiction over employer’s request for Writ of Prohibition against Human Relations Commission investigation and exercise of jurisdiction over complaint brought under this section, where Commission had issued interlocutory order indicating necessity of preliminary hearing to determine procedural issues and for analysis of original settlement agreement. McGraw-Edison Co. v. Human Relations Commission, 529 A.2d 81 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1987).
