What follows is an opinion from a United States Court of Appeals.
Intervenors who participated as parties at the courts of appeals should be counted as either appellants or respondents when it can be determined whose position they supported. For example, if there were two plaintiffs who lost in district court, appealed, and were joined by four intervenors who also asked the court of appeals to reverse the district court, the number of appellants should be coded as six.
When coding the detailed nature of participants, use your personal knowledge about the participants, if you are completely confident of the accuracy of your knowledge, even if the specific information is not in the opinion. For example, if "IBM" is listed as the appellant it could be classified as "clearly national or international in scope" even if the opinion did not indicate the scope of the business. 

Your task concerns the first listed appellant. The nature of this litigant falls into the category "natural person (excludes persons named in their official capacity or who appear because of a role in a private organization)". Your task is to determine the gender of this litigant. Use names to classify the party's sex only if there is little ambiguity (e.g., the sex of "Chris" should be coded as "not ascertained").

Opinion:
Emmeline LEWIS, for herself, all teachers employed in the San Jacinto Junior College, Harris County, Texas, etc., Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Thomas M.

Summary Calendar.
United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.

Larry Watts, Houston, Tex., for plaintiff-appellant.
B. Jeff Crane, Jr., Houston, Tex., for defendants-appellees.
Before BELL, SIMPSON and MORGAN, Circuit Judges.
Rule 18, 5 Cir.; See Isbell Enterprises, Inc. v. Citizens Casualty Company of New York et al., 5 Cir. 1970, 431 F.2d 409, Part I.
PER CURIAM:
Following the remand directed by our opinion in the former appeal of this matter, Lewis v. Spencer et al., 5 Cir. 1972, 468 F.2d 553, the district court held an evidentiary hearing and entered its opinion order finding adversely to the plaintiff-appellant’s contentions as to the factual issues directed to be fried by our remand. Those issues were (1) whether or not the action of the Board of Regents of San Jacinto Junior College in not renewing Ms. Lewis’ teaching contract was taken in retaliation for her exercise of First Amendment rights and her rights of freedom of association; and (2) whether the adoption of the policy without a recognition therein of plaintiff and her husband’s unique situation (viz, recently married and the only couple in the school to whom the policy was applicable) through such a device as a grandfather clause or prospective application, would make impermissible as applied an otherwise constitutionally valid policy.
The trial court’s hearing fully ventilated these issues and his findings of fact settled them, unless we determine that his findings were “clearly erroneous”. Rule 52(a), F.R.Civ.P.; United States v. National Association of Real Estate Boards, 1950, 339 U.S. 485, 495-496, 70 S.Ct. 711, 94 L.Ed. 1007. The task of demonstrating that the findings of a trial court are “clearly erroneous” is a heavy burden indeed. We are satisfied that the plaintiff-appellant has not met that burden on this appeal. Our view is rather that the trial court’s findings were required by the evidence presented, to the extent that we would seriously consider assigning a “clearly erroneous” label if contrary findings had been reached.
Affirmed.
