GEORGIA ASSOCIATION OF RETARDED CITIZENS, et al., Plaintiffs-Appellants, v. Dr. Charles McDANIEL, et al., Defendants-Appellees.

United States Court of Appeals, Eleventh Circuit.

September 21, 1988.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Phyllis J. Holmen, Georgia Legal Services Program, Jonathan A. Zimring, Atlanta, Ga., for plaintiffs-appellants.

Griffin B. Bell, Jr., Fisher & Phillips, Lawrence S. McGoldrick, Alfred L. Evans, Jr., Asst. Atty. Gen., Atlanta, Ga., for defendants-appellees.

Before FAY and CLARK, Circuit Judges, and GUIN, District Judge.


CLARK, Circuit Judge:

All the issues in this appeal concern the district court's conclusion that an award of costs pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(d) and 28 U.S.C. § 1920 does not bear interest. Although there is conflicting law in the Eleventh Circuit on this question, we conclude that when a district court awards costs to a prevailing party, the award bears interest from the date of judgment.
