BOEING DEFENSE & SPACESSIRVING CO.,
Defendant-Appellee.
_________________________
Appeals from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
(3:97-CV-2524-R)
_________________________
November 14, 2000
Before JOLLY, JONES, and SMITH,
Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
The plaintiffs appeal only the award of at-
torneys’ fees. Having reviewed the briefs, the
record, and the applicable law, and having
heard and considered the oral arguments of
counsel, we conclude that the district court
committed no reversible error.
Irrespective of whether the court was cor-
rect in assigning its reasons for the assessment
of fees, it is not reasonably deniable that the
plaintiff-appellants were guilty of gross
misconduct and were subject to sanction on
that ground at least. The judgment,
accordingly, is AFFIRMED.**
* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has
determined that this opinion should not be
published and is not precedent except under the
limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4. ** Judge Jolly would reverse as to Anderson.
