Text: 60 The special verdict form did not apportion the damages between the verdicts we have reversed and the ones we have affirmed. We vacate the damages award and remand. Memphis Comm. Sch. Dist. v. Stachura, 477 U.S. 299, 312-13, 106 S.Ct. 2537, 2545-46, 91 L.Ed.2d 249 (1986); Smiddy v. Varney, 665 F.2d 261, 268 (9th Cir.1981), cert. denied, 459 U.S. 829, 103 S.Ct. 65, 74 L.Ed.2d 66 (1982). 61 In his cross appeal, Maynard argues that the district court erred in (1) denying his request for reinstatement or frontpay and the removal of an unfavorable performance evaluation, and (2) granting him only $67,500 of the $135,075.50 in attorneys' fees he requested pursuant to 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1988. As Maynard has not prevailed on his federal civil rights claims, he is not entitled to either equitable relief or attorneys' fees. We affirm the denial of equitable relief and vacate the attorneys' fee award. 62 On appeal, each side shall bear their own fees and costs.
