Notes of Decisions

   As the Department of Environmental Resources refused to process Petitioner’s application for a mining permit, petitioners subsequently commenced an action to compel the Department to process their application, and based on a prior Superior Court decision, requested the production of two memoranda for discovery which the Court determined to be protected from discovery under the work product doctrine as to one memorandum and immune on the basis of the attorney-client privilege as to the other. Sedat, Inc., v. Department of Environmental Resources, 641 A.2d 1243 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1994).
