General State Authority v. George M. Ewing Co. , 29 Pa. Commw. 523 ( 1977 )

Per Curiam

Opinion and Order,

The parties agree that' the primary question argued before the Court on March 11, 1977, on these preliminary objections is whether the statute of limitations can be asserted to bar a claim by the General State Authority.¹ On March 11,- 1977, the same day this, case was argued, this Court filed its decision in General State Authority v. Kline, 29 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 232, 370 A.2d 402 (1977), a case that raised the identical question and held, with an opinion by Judge Blatt, that the statute of ■ limitations does not apply to actions brought by the General State Authority.

Accordingly, we will enter the following

Order

Now, April 13, 1977, the preliminary, objections of Dow Chemical Company to the complaint joining it as an additional defendant are overruled. .

1 There was a subsidiary question of whether one of the additional defendants, Dow Chemical Company, could be joined as an additional defendant on the theory of sole liability if the statute of limitations was a bar. The question is now moot in this casé. .
