IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS
JONESBORO DIVISION
JUDY NICHOLS
v.

PLAINTIFF
Case No. 3:09CV00224 JLH

HYTROL CONVEYOR COMPANY, INC.

DEFENDANT

JUDGMENT
On the 3rd day of May, 2011, this matter came before the Court for trial by jury. Judy
Nichols appeared in person and through her attorney, Lucien R. Gillham. Hytrol Conveyor
Company, Inc., appeared through its corporate representative, Sandy Logsdon, and its attorneys, Paul
D. Waddell and M. Scott Jackson. Both parties announced ready for trial. A jury of 12 was duly
selected and sworn. At the conclusion of all of the evidence and after the jury had been instructed
on the law, the jury returned a verdict finding that Judy Nichols failed to prove by the greater weight
of the evidence that her sex was a motivating factor in Hytrol’s decision to discharge her. Judgment
is therefore entered in favor of Hytrol Conveyor Company, Inc., on the claims of Judy Nichols. The
complaint of Judy Nichols is dismissed with prejudice.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 5th day of May, 2011.

J. LEON HOLMES
UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
