5th Circuit Reverses Dismissal of Race Discrimination Claim Against Woodforest Bank

On December 21, 2011, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals entered an Opinion reversing Judge Aycock’s prior dismissal of a race discrimination claim against Woodforest Bank.  The Fifth Circuit found that the Court had “impermissibly substituted its judgment concerning the weight of the evidence for the jury’s.”  The facts of case can be found in a prior post.

Vaughn was represented by Jim Waide and Ron Woodruff.

Woodforest was represented by Paula Ardelean and Carlyle White.
