ORDER

Pending before the Court are two issues left to be resolved in this case. First is the issue of damages under the 42 U.S.C. § 1983 count against the Highway Commission. At the trial in September, 1983, the jury returned verdicts in favor of the class and against the Highway Commission. The question is whether the doctrine of sovereign immunity precludes such damages under § 1983. The plaintiffs have presented no persuasive authority to challenge the defendants’ position that they are immune from monetary damages. However, this immunity does not extend to equitable or injunctive relief. Wood v. Strickland, 420 U.S. 308, 314 n. 6, 95 S.Ct. 992, 997 n. 6, 43 L.Ed.2d 214 (1975); Hoohuyli v. Ariyoshi, 741 F.2d 1169, 1176 (9th Cir. 1984). Since the Court has already ordered injunctive relief under Title VII in this case, any relief under § 1983 would mirror what has been set out in the Court’s order of December 13, 1985.

Secondly, plaintiffs have submitted their calculations of back pay based on the Ha-meed formula followed by this Court in its December 13, 1985 order. See Hameed v. Ironworkers, 637 F.2d 506 (8th Cir. 1980). The defendants reviewed this submission and chose not to make any response. Accordingly, it is hereby

ORDERED that the individually named plaintiffs are awarded the following amount of back pay:

Jane Catlett $ 78,189.77

Patricia Leembruggen 123,923.18

Adeline Kallemyn 105,245.82

ORDERED that monetary damages under § 1983 are denied, but injunctive relief is granted, to mirror that already ordered by this Court.
