Description
Defendants City of Knoxville, City Mayor Randy Tyree and City Director of Public Safety Harold Shipley appeal, and plaintiff Paris Goin*fn1 cross-appeals, from a district court judgment in favor of Goin in this action brought under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA), 29 U.S.C. § 621 et seq. The district court's opinion is reported at 567 F. Supp. 1344. The defendants contend that the district court should have ruled Goin's action barred under the doctrine of res judicata.*fn2 Goin asserts that the district court erred in refusing to award liquidated damages for a willful violation of ADEA. See 29 U.S.C. § 626(b). For the reasons stated below, we affirm the judgment of the district court.
