ORDER

PER CURIAM.

AND NOW, this 26th day of September, 2007, the Order of the Court of Common Pleas of Erie County is affirmed.

Chief Justice CAPPY files a concurring statement.

Justice EAKIN files a concurring statement.

Chief Justice CAPPY, concurring.

I join the Court in its per curiam order. Although I previously joined Mr. Justice Eakin in his dissenting opinion in Burger v. School Board of the McGuffey School District, 923 A.2d 1155 (2007), that case now stands as a majority precedent in this Court, and therefore, stare decisis in this instance.

Justice EAKIN, concurring.

I join the per curiam affirmance. While I remain of the opinion expressed in my dissent in Burger v. School Board of the McGuffey School District, 923 A.2d 1155, 1167 (2007) (Eakin, J., dissenting), I recognize the precedential value of Burger's majority.
