Description
The Civil Service Commission of the City of St. Louis, along with its members, (the Commission) appeals from the trial courts judgment prohibiting it from using promotional lists for battalion chief and fire captain that had previously expired. The Commission contends that the trial court erred in denying its motion to dismiss for lack of standing, issuing a writ of prohibition on a petition that requested a writ of mandamus, and holding that the city charter did not give the Commission the authority to reinstate a promotional list after it expired. Intervenors, St. Louis Firefighters Association Local 73 and three of its members, also appeal, and assert that the court erroneously interpreted and applied the law governing the Commissions authority and discretion. We affirm.
