MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
KOPF, District Judge.
The pretrial conference order in this case presents the question of whether the plaintiff is entitled to a jury trial in this Family and Medical Leave Act case. I conclude that as to liability and back pay, the plaintiff is entitled to a jury trial. Helmly v. Stone Container Corp., 957 F.Supp. 1274 (S.D.Ga.1997). As to equitable issues such as reinstatement and front pay, I conclude that those issues are for the court. Cf., Newhouse v. McCormick & Co., Inc., 110 F.3d 635 (8th Cir.1997).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
