MEMORANDUM OPINION
MYRON H. THOMPSON, District Judge.
In this action, a class of female police officers and two individual female officers charge that officials of the City of Montgomery, Alabama and its police department denied them promotions because of their sex, and that these officials retaliated against one of them for bringing such charges. Based on the evidence presented at a nonjury trial, the court concludes that the allegations of discrimination and retaliation have merit and that appropriate individual and class-wide relief is due.
