EDMUNDS, District Judge.

Plaintiff brought this case against his former employer, claiming race discrimination in violation of Title VII, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq. and 42 U.S.C. § 1981. After a bench trial, the district court found that Yellow Freight Systems, Inc. discriminated against Darrell Thurman by failing to hire him as a full time employee. The district court awarded back pay, costs, and attorney fees, and denied Thurman’s requests for instatement, compensatory and punitive damages, prejudgment interest, and front pay. Defendant appealed and Plaintiff cross-appealed.
