Heading: safeway's cross-appeal.

Text: 19 In its cross-appeal, Safeway contends it is entitled to an award of costs and attorney's fees as the prevailing party under 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(k). This issue was properly addressed to the sound discretion of the court. United States Steel Corp. v. United States, 519 F.2d 359 (3rd Cir. 1975); Van Hoomissen v. Xerox Corp., 503 F.2d 1131 (9th Cir. 1974). We find no abuse of this discretion by the district court, and affirm its refusal to award costs and attorney's fees to Safeway. 20 AFFIRMED.
