1Opinion of the CourtM. F. Cavanagh, J.
Defendant school district appeals from the trial court’s finding that defendant had engaged in employment discrimination on the basis of sex. The case was before the circuit court on appeal from a finding of discrimination made by the Michigan Civil Rights Commission (CRC).
The first issue raised on appeal is whether the Michigan Civil Rights Commission has the jurisdiction to prosecute sex discrimination cases. We answer that question in the affirmative on the authority of City of Ypsilanti v Civil Rights Comm, 55 Mich App 103; 221 NW2d 923 (1974), aff'd 393 Mich 254; 224 NW2d 281 (1974).
