ORDER

MYRON H. THOMPSON, District Judge.

In late 1983, as this lawsuit moved into its twelfth year, this court remarked, regarding a temporary one-black-for-one-white promotion requirement that it had just imposed on the Alabama Department of Public Safety, that

it is clear that the court and the parties should now contemplate bringing this litigation to an end. The court therefore hopes that ... the remedy imposed today will hasten the day when the Alabama Department of Public Safety is no longer under the supervision of this court.
