The opinion

JUSTICE BOWMAN, dissenting:

I respectfully dissent. I believe that the majority decision of Coyne v. Milan Police Pension Board, 347 Ill. App. 3d 713, 727-30 (2004), as set forth in section 5, “Physicians’ Certificates of Disability,” correctly interprets section 3 — 115 of the Illinois Pension Code (40 ILCS 5/3— 115 (West 2002)). I fully and completely adopt the Coyne majority’s analysis and reasoning.

Because the majority in the case sub judice did not address the other issues raised on appeal, I restrict my dissent to the majority’s interpretation of section 3 — 115 of the Pension Code.
