Jerry L. Lockett v. Board of Education of Muscogee County School District, Georgia

976 F.2d 648, 1992 U.S. App. LEXIS 28279, 1992 WL 289387

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

In the light of Graves v. Walton County Bd. of Educ., 686 F.2d 1135, 1138 (5th Cir.Unit B 1982), the district court’s dismissal of this school desegregation case is VACATED and the case is remanded for further proceedings because the district court and original parties treated this case from the outset as one that was, in fact, a class action, that is, a suit to benefit directly persons other than the named plaintiffs.

VACATED and REMANDED.
