Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit
Decided April 23, 1984No. 82-7255PublishedCited by 49 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
JAMES C. HILL, Circuit Judge:
Appellant Darnell proved that the City of Jasper, Alabama, engaged in intentional discrimination by refusing to hire him as a police officer because of his race in violation of Title VII, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a) (1976). The City does not appeal the finding of a Title VII violation. Darnell, however, appeals the remedy awarded him by the district court. Finding the remedy inadequate to make Darnell whole, we vacate that portion of the district court’s judgment and remand for entry of the relief set forth in this opinion.
