855 A.2d 669 (2004)

JAMES J. GORY MECHANICAL CONTRACTING, INC., Appellee, v. PHILADELPHIA HOUSING AUTHORITY, Appellant.

Supreme Court of Pennsylvania.

Decided August 17, 2004.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Denis James Lawler, Esq., Philadelphia, for Philadelphia Housing Authority.

Bruce L. Phillips. Esq., Philadelphia, for James J. Gory Mechanical Contracting, Inc.

BEFORE: CAPPY, C.J., and CASTILLE, NIGRO, NEWMAN, SAYLOR, EAKIN and LAMB, JJ.

OPINION OF THE COURT

Justice NIGRO.

We granted allowance of appeal in the instant case to resolve whether the Philadelphia County Court of Common Pleas (the "Trial Court") had original jurisdiction over the underlying action brought against the Philadelphia Housing Authority ("PHA"). We hold that the Trial Court did indeed have original jurisdiction over the case and therefore affirm the Superior Court's finding in that respect.
