1Opinion of the Court
MARTIN, Circuit Judge:
After hearing the evidence in this pregnancy discrimination case, the jury returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff, Lisa Holland, and awarded her $80,000 in back pay and $10,000 for emotional distress. The defendant, Sheriff David Gee, moved for judgment as a matter of law. The District Court sustained the jury’s finding of liability, but vacated the award of back pay. After careful review of the record and of the parties’ briefs, and with the benefit of oral argument, we affirm in part, reverse in part, and remand for the entry of judgment on the jury’s verdict.
