Description
This is a direct appeal of the Medical Mediation Panel's judicial referee's order dismissing Faust's action before the panel against Simmons, her podiatrist. The referee dismissed the claim because he found that Section 768.133, Florida Statutes (1975) which establishes the mediation panel and its jurisdiction did not apply to podiatrists. The referee also declared the statute constitutional. Orders of trial courts passing upon the constitutional validity of a Florida Statute are appealable to this Court. Article V, Section 3(b)(1), Florida Constitution. The jurisdictional question this case presents is: Is the order of a Medical Mediation Panel's judicial referee an order of a trial court? We conclude that it is not and transfer this appeal.
