Head Matter:
No. 83-706.
Lehman, Secretary of the Navy, et al. v. Trout et al.

Opinion:
C. A. D. C. Cir. Certiorari granted, judgment vacated, and case remanded to the Court of Appeals with instructions to remand the case to the District Court for the District of Columbia for findings of fact, based on new evidence if necessary, on the question what evidentiary value respondents' and petitioners' statistical evidence has in light of the Court of Appeals' conclusions of law concerning employment decisions that are not actionable in this case. See Pullman-Standard v. Swint, 456 U. S. 273, 292 (1982). The overall sufficiency of the evidence should then be considered in light of United States Postal Service Bd. of Governors v. Aikens, 460 U. S. 711 (1983).
