Written by the judges who cited it.

The opinion

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.
