CARROLL, United States Magistrate Judge.

I. INTRODUCTION AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY

The plaintiffs, teachers within the Alabama public school system who hold teaching certificates, filed this action under 42 U.S.C. Section 1988. They claim that ALA.CODE § 16-23-5 (1987) is unconstitutionally vague, and thus violates the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. The plaintiffs also seek certification of a class. Both parties have submitted briefs on this issue, and a bench trial was held on September 11, 1995.
