Before SMITH, WIENER, and BARKSDALE, Circuit Judges. Willie Pratt and Bernard Garrett appeal a judgment, following a bench trial, in which the PER CURIAM:* district court, after a remand by this court,

* * Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has (...continued) determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited cir- (continued...) cumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. found no racial discrimination by the defendant employer, the City of Houston. We have reviewed the briefs and applicable authorities and pertinent portions of the record and have heard the arguments of counsel.
