This is a class action brought pursuant to the Voting Rights Act of 1965,
42 U.S.C. § 1971 et seq., 42 U.S.C. § 1983, and the First, Fourteenth, Fifteenth and Twenty-Sixth Amendments. On May 21, 1975, after evidentiary hearing and oral argument, we preliminarily enjoined defendant, Christine L. Chandler, Circuit Clerk and Registrar of Leflore County, Mississippi, from treating voter registration applications tendered by black students attending Mississippi Valley State University, situated in Leflore County, on the basis of standards and procedures different from those applied to other voter registration applicants who are residents of Leflore County. Defendant sought no appeal but complied with our order. Subsequently, on November 7, 1975, plaintiffs moved for an award of attorney fees in the action, it being evident that, aside from certifying the case as a class action and making permanent the terms of the preliminary injunction, no further relief was desired.
