## Opinion text

Concurring Opinion by
Mr. Justice O’Brien:
I concur in the result reached by the majority. I do so, however, on the exclusive ground that, like Jus *525 tice Roberts, I continue to adhere to the position stated by him in his concurring opinion in Chalfin v. Specter, 426 Pa. 464, 477 , 233 A. 2d 562, 568 (1967), in which concurring opinion I joined.
Since I conclude that appellant did not pursue the exclusive statutory remedy available to him, I have no reason to speculate on the question of whether §2-103 of the Philadelphia Home Rule Charter precludes judicial intervention.
