Opinion
RUBIN, Acting P. J.
This appeal presents a single question of law for our determination: Where civil service rules vest a civil service commission with jurisdiction over an employee’s appeal of her discharge, including an attendant claim for a resulting loss of pay, does the employee’s retirement during the pendency of civil service proceedings divest the commission of jurisdiction over the civil service appeal? Taking our lead from the opinion in Zuniga v. Los Angeles County Civil Service Com. (2006) 137 Cal.App.4th 1255 [40 Cal.Rptr.3d 863], we answer the question “yes.”
