Ducloux v. Empire Executive Coaches, Inc.

OPINION

GILBERT, Justice.

Petitioner, Lyn M. Ducloux, sought review by the court of appeals of the Commissioner of Economic Security’s (Commissioner) decision to deny her reemployment insurance benefits. The court of appeals dismissed the case for lack of jurisdiction because Ducloux failed to timely serve the Commissioner and other parties involved with the petition for the writ of certiorari as required by MinmStat. § 268.105, subd. 7(a) (Supp.1999). Ducloux now seeks review of the court of appeals’ decision arguing that timely service of a conformed writ of certiorari should satisfy the statutory requirement.

The issues presented are identical to those decided today in Harms v. Oak Meadows, 619 N.W.2d 201 (Minn.2000). Based on our decision in Harms, we affirm the court of appeals’ decision to discharge the writ of certiorari and dismiss Ducloux’s appeal.

Affirmed.
