           Appeal from the United States District Court
      for the Northern District of Mississippi, Greenville
                       USDC No. 4:03-CV-401
_________________________________________________________________

Before REAVLEY, JOLLY, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     The district court was correct in its conclusion that judicial

estoppel was inappropriate because it properly found that, under

the facts of this case, Banks had no motive to conceal her Title

VII claim and thus her failure to disclose it to the bankruptcy

court was inadvertent.

     AFFIRMED.

     *
      Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the Court has determined that
this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except
under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.
