Description
We granted allocatur in this case to address a question of first impression and resolve conflicting decisions of the lower courts. The question is whether the commonwealth court has jurisdiction over inmate appeals of decisions of the Central Office Review Committee (C.O.R.C.), under either 42 Pa.C.S. § 761 (original jurisdiction) or 42 Pa.C.S § 763 (appellate jurisdiction). Appellee, the C.O.R.C., is an administrative body comprised of three members of the Department of Corrections central office staff, "to include the Commissioner, Executive Deputy Commissioner and Chief Counsel or their designees." DC-ADM 804 IV. D. With certain exceptions not pertinent here, the C.O.R.C. is responsible for "direct review of all Inmate Appeals for Final Review." Id. Appellant, Purcell Bronson, is an inmate currently in the custody of the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections who seeks appellate review of the C.O.R.C.s decision denying his inmate grievances.
