MATHIAS, J.,
concurring in result.
I concur in result but respectfully disagree with the majority's conclusion that a trial court may exercise its discretion in deciding whether to allow a petition for judicial review if the agency record is not filed in accordance with Indiana Code seetion 4-21.5-5-13. The timely and complete filing of the agency record is a condition precedent to the acquisition of jurisdiction to consider a petition for judicial review. Therefore, for the reasons expressed in Indiana State Board of Education v. Brownsburg Community School Corp., 813 N.E.2d 330 (Ind.Ct.App.2004) and Izaak Walton League of America, Inc. v. DeKalb County Surveyor's Office, 850 N.E.2d 957 (Ind.Ct.App.2007), trans. denied (Mathias J., dissenting), I concur in result.
