Steven A. McLeod's Motion to Intervene as Equal Status Third Party was filed in this Court on May 4, 2009; however, said motion was not accompanied by the $295.00 filing fee as required by § 25.241(b), Florida Statutes (2008). The filing fee is due and payable at the time of filing the motion to intervene.

The motion to intervene will not be submitted to the Court until receipt of the above. Failure to submit the filing fee within the allotted time may result in the imposition of sanctions, including striking the motion to intervene without further order of the Court; however, said fee is still due and payable.

DISP-GRANTED
|
|
We conclude that the Governor is bound by the Florida Constitution to appoint a nominee from the JNC's certified list, within sixty days of that certification. There is no exception to that mandate. Therefore, we hold that under the undisputed facts and specific circumstances present in this case, the Governor lacks authority under the constitution to seek a new list of nominees from the JNC and has a mandatory duty to fill the vacancy created by Petitioner's retirement with an appointment from the list certified to him on November 6, 2008. Because we believe the Governor will fully comply with the dictates of this opinion, we grant the petition but withhold issuance of the writ.
