Description

McMILLIAN, Circuit Judge. Melvin Hicks (""plaintiff"") appeals from a final judgment entered in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri, after a bench trial, in favor of St. Mary's Honor Center (""St. Mary's"") and Steve Long (together ""defendants"") on the merits of his racial discrimination claim against St. Mary's under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (""Title VII""), 42 U.S.C. 2000e et seq., and his equal protection claim against Long under 42 U.S.C. § 1983.1 Hicks v. St. Mary's Honor Center, 756 F. Supp. 1244 (E.D. Mo. 1991). On plaintiff's behalf, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (""EEOC"") has appeared in this appeal as an amicus curiae. For reversal, plaintiff and the EEOC argue that the district court erred in holding that plaintiff failed to meet his burden of proving racial discrimination even though he had established a prima facie case of discrimination and had proven by a preponderance of the evidence that defendants' proffered nondiscriminatory reasons for demoting and terminating him were pretextual. For the reasons stated below, we reverse the judgment of the district court and remand the case with directions.
