ON REMAND FROM THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES

PER CURIAM:

This matter has been pending in the United States Supreme Court, ___ U.S. ___, 103 S.Ct. 1515, 75 L.Ed.2d 942 which recently entered its order reading as follows:

"The petition for a writ of certiorari is granted. The judgment is vacated and the case is remanded to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit for further consideration in light of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, 42 U.S.C. § 1973, as amended in 1982."

In accordance with these instructions we remand the matter to the district court for further consideration in light of the recent amendments to Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and the recent pronouncements of the United States Supreme Court in Rogers v. Lodge, ___ U.S. ___, 102 S.Ct. 3272, 73 L.Ed.2d 1012 (1982) and the City of Mobile v. Bolden, 446 U.S. 55, 100 S.Ct. 1490, 60 L.Ed.2d 47 (1980). All prior judgments are vacated. 688 F.2d 279, 639 F.2d 1383, 604 F.2d 875.
