Before KRAVITCH and COX, Circuit Judges, and RONEY, Senior Circuit Judge.

KRAVITCH, Circuit Judge:

Alice Richardson, a black school teacher, brought a Title VII action against her employer, the Board of Education of Lamar County, Alabama. After a bench trial the district court ruled in her favor, and the County Board appeals. The County Board argues that appellee's suit was precluded by a previous consent decree and also challenges the district court's adjudication of the Title VII claim and remedies. We affirm.
