¶1 We affirm without discussion the issues raised by the Commissioner of Education on direct appeal regarding the final order of the Education Practices Commission temporarily revoking the educator’s certificate held by the appellee, Gilbert Faublas. However, we reverse based on the issue raised by Mr. Faublas on cross-appeal regarding the retroactive application of sections 1012.795 and 1012.315, Florida Statutes (2008). We find that the Legislature did not intend for those sections to apply retroactively, and that retroactive application of those sections violates constitutional principles. See Presmy v. Smith, 69 So.3d 383 (Fla. 1st DCA 2011). Accordingly, we find that the Education Practices Commission lacked authority to apply the statute retroactively, and we reverse the final order and remand for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
¶2 AFFIRMED IN PART; REVERSED IN PART.
