## Opinion text

*642 Dissenting Opinion by
Judge Ckumlisi-i :
I am reiterating the position which I have taken in Lovrinoff v. Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission, 3 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 161 , 281 A. 2d 176 (1971). I believe that this Court can consider the merits of the contention that the sovereign immunity doctrine is subject to review and possible restatement.
Judge Kramer joins in this Dissent.
