OPINION OF THE COURT

A. LEON HIGGINBOTHAM, Jr., Chief Judge.

This case presents the appeal of the district court's Order dated March 9, 1990 granting plaintiff's motion for award of attorney's fees and costs, but reducing it by two-thirds because of the plaintiff's "limited success." 735 F.Supp. 158. Because we believe that the district court reached the correct result, we will affirm the lower court's order.
