Skyvue Terrace, Inc. v. Department of Public Welfare

In Skyvue Terrace, Inc. v. Department of Public Welfare, 85 Pa. Commw. 123, 482 A.2d 58 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1982), the Court declined to apply 1 Pa. Code 31.2 so as to excuse a party's failure to comply with a regulation relating to the timeliness of filings. Determining the language of the regulation at issue was clear with regard to the method for filing certain documents, we rejected a party's argument that the clear regulatory language should be disregarded by applying a liberal construction to a clear regulatory requirement.
