1Opinion of the Court
GARWOOD, Circuit Judge:
In this Title VII disparate treatment case, a magistrate acting as special master found in favor of the defendant-employer. The district court rejected the magistrate’s recommendations in part, finding in favor of the plaintiff, Ana Uviedo, on one claim of wage discrimination and one claim of denial of promotion. The district court also awarded the plaintiff $7,500 in attorneys’ fees. Defendant appeals. We affirm the district court’s judgment on the substantive claims, but reverse the award of attorneys’ fees.
