Opinion by
Judge ROTHENBERG.
Defendant, Chesrown Chevrolet, Inc., appeals the judgment entered upon a jury verdict finding it hable for the discriminatory and unlawful firing of plaintiff, David D. Gwin. We affirm and remand for an award of attorney fees for plaintiff.
Gwin, an African-American, sold cars for Chesrown Chevrolet from January 1993 until May 5, 1993, when he was fired by Ches-rown’s general manager. The discharge was precipitated by Gwin’s voluntary participation in a sales seminar the day before and Gwin’s demand for a refund of money paid for that seminar.
