Clarence E. JOHNSON, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. BAYLOR COLLEGE OF MEDICINE et al., Defendants-Appellees.
    No. 79-3961
    Summary Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Sept. 4, 1980.
    Clementine Hannah, Houston, Tex., for plaintiff-appellant.
    Fulbright & Jaworski, A. .J. Harper, II, Susan J. Piller, Houston, Tex., for defendants-appellees.
    Before GEE, HENDERSON and HATCHETT, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

The judgment of the court below is AFFIRMED.

The court further concludes that this appeal — contesting only the taxation as costs of a $211 court reporter’s fee for taking and transcribing of the losing plaintiff’s deposition — is frivolous. Double costs and attorneys’ fees are therefore awarded appellees, and the cause is REMANDED for their determination.

AFFIRMED AND REMANDED.
