No. 2005-CC-02188-COA.

949 So.2d 839 (2007)

PUBLIC EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM, Appellant v. Kelly L. WRIGHT, Appellee.

Court of Appeals of Mississippi.

February 13, 2007.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mary Margaret Bowers, attorney for appellant.

Janice T. Jackson, Jackson, attorney for appellee.

Before KING, C.J., IRVING and GRIFFIS, JJ.


KING, C.J., for the Court.

¶ 1. The Public Employees' Retirement System of Mississippi (PERS) appeals the circuit court's decision to award disability retirement benefits to Kelly Wright, reversing PERS's finding that Wright was not disabled. Because the Court finds that the Disability Appeals Committee violated Wright's constitutional right to due process, the Court reverses and remands this case to PERS for proceedings consistent with this opinion.
