1Opinion of the Court
MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judge.
Harold Dotson, a black man, was a material handler in the shipping department of Delta Consolidated Industries, Inc., when his group leader resigned, creating an opening for a group leader. Matthew Vaughn, a white co-worker of Mr. Dotson, applied for and received the position.
Mr. Dotson subsequently sued Delta under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, see 42 U.S.C. § 2000e through § 2000e-17, alleging race discrimination. The district court 1 granted summary judgment to Delta, and Mr. Dotson appealed. We affirm the judgment of the district court.
