                       the Northern District of Mississippi

                                  November 15, 2000

Before REAVLEY, DeMOSS and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

      The City of New Albany, Mississippi admits liability but appeals the district

court’s award of attorney’s fees and damages for emotional distress to Ricky Galloway.

      *
        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should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances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.
We agree with the district court that Galloway’s testimony supports the award of

damages for his fees and for emotional distress.

      AFFIRMED

                                            2
