1Opinion of the Court
Dolliver, J. —
Defendant Snohomish County appeals a judgment granting a deputy sheriff reinstatement, back wages, and attorney fees because he was refused reemployment after he returned from military duty. Plaintiff Frank Nichols retained private counsel when the Snohomish County Prosecutor refused to bring an action to enforce Nichols' veteran's reemployment rights pursuant to RCW 73.16.
The County petitions for a review of the Court of Appeals decision affirming Nichols' reinstatement as a deputy sheriff. Nichols v. Snohomish Cy., 47 Wn. App. 550, 736 P.2d 670 (1987). We affirm.
