## Opinion text

ZAPPALA, Justice,
concurring.
In County of Lehigh v. Pennsylvania Labor Relations Board, 507 Pa. 270 , 489 A.2d 1325 (1985), I dissented from the majority Opinion based upon my conclusion that the judicial secretaries were not confidential employees as defined in the Public Employe Relations Act, 43 P.S. §§ 1101.101 et seq. I join in the per curiam order in this case, however, in recognition of the decision in County of Lehigh as the controlling authority.
