Where does the State Civil Service Commission get its authority to hear appeals?
Article X, Sections 8 and 12 of the state constitution authorize the Commission to hear and decide certain types of cases involving state classified employees. If the case involves removal or disciplinary action against a permanent state classified employee, the Commission’s jurisdiction is exclusive, meaning that the state district courts do not have jurisdiction over such cases.
