   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  00-3159
                          and No:  00-3896
                          and No:  00-3460
   Western District of Arkansas   
   Civil case - District court did not err in denying the state and its 
   officials Eleventh Amendment immunity on plaintiffs' Title 
   VII claims, as Congress expressed its unequivocal intent to 
   abrogate immunity and acted pursuant to its constitutional authority 
   when it validly abrogated Eleventh Amendment for claims of 
   disparate treatment and impact on the basis of gender and race; 
   officials sued in their individual capacities for acts outside their 
   official duties were not entitled to Eleventh Amendment immunity; 
   district court did not err applying Arkansas law regarding malice.
