It cannot be disputed that this action by the Commission "fixed a legal relationship" between Delmarva and the municipalities. It is equally clear that the action of the Commission in reversing the AU on the discrimination issue "aggrieved" the municipalities within the meaning of SS 313(b). We therefore conclude that, had the municipalities petitioned in this court for review of Opinion 185-A within 60 days of its issuance, we would have had jurisdiction to review the opinion as a final order by the Commission.

In part, this concern over proper or genuine identity is borne out in the close attention courts have given to cases of forgery. They consistently have defined those activities which involved misrepresentation of identity as within the scope of SS 2314.

We agree with the Langleys, however, that their complaint can be liberally construed to encompass all three of these asserted allegations of negligence. First, the most obvious cause of action stems from Shannon's alleged negligence for failure to diagnose the kitten as rabid at the first office visit. Second, the disputed facts indicate that Shannon may have been negligent because she recognized the danger that the kitten may have been exposed to the rabies virus and needed to be either euthanized or quarantined, but failed to communicate the same to the Langleys.

Matthys's estoppel argument is unpersuasive for a number of reasons. To begin, Matthys has not identified any case, post-Dormeyer, in which the Seventh Circuit has found equitable estoppel to be applicable in an FMLA interference case; and only a few District Courts in the Circuit have applied estoppel as to FMLA eligibility, an element which is not an issue here.

At common law, where the charge was not for a completed offense, but for an attempt to commit it, only intention would suffice and mere recklessness was not enough. See Robinson, Element Analysis, 35 Stan.L.Rev. at 749-50. The relevant case law from other jurisdictions makes it clear that recklessness and negligence are incompatible with desire or intention. It is impossible to conceive of an attempt where a crime by definition may be committed recklessly or negligently but not intentionally.
