    She subsequently sought mandamus to compel the Highway Department to reinstate her in the identical position previously held by her at Jesup, which action, on appeal, was held deficient in that the petition showed the administrative remedies available to her had not been exhausted. Gunther v. Gillis, 220 Ga. 634 ( 140 S.E.2d 851). A hearing was requested before the State Personnel Board on February 15, 1965, which resulted in a denial of the appeal in the following language: "Mrs. Gunther was entitled to be reinstated with the State Highway Department of Georgia, but does not have the right to insist on reinstatement to the identical position in Jesup from which she was granted a leave of absence. . . Further, Mrs. Gunther was offered reinstatement by the letter from the State Highway Department to her dated October 26, 1962, and she did not accept the offer." Appellant's application for certiorari from the denial of her appeal was overruled, the latter judgment being the basis of her appeal to this court.
