Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana (99-CV-929)

March 1, 2002

Before HIGGINBOTHAM, WIENER, and BARKSDALE, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Charles Evans, Jr., appeals the district court’s grant of

summary judgment in favor of the various defendants in this Title

VII sexual harassment and hostile work environment case. We review

* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. the district court’s grant of summary judgment de novo.1 The

district court’s grant of summary judgment was based on the

undisputed record evidence indicating that none of the defendants

are “employers” within the meaning of Title VII of the Civil Rights

Act of 1964.2 North Street Boxing Club did not have the requisite

15 employees to qualify as an employer.3 Therefore those

defendants affiliated with NSBC cannot be liable. Finally Edward

Ward, Jr., had no relevant relationship with NSBC. Evans’ other

arguments are meritless.

AFFIRMED.

1 Stucky v. City of San Antonio,

(5th Cir. 2001). 2 42 U.S.C. § 2000e(b). 3 Greenlees v. Eidenmuller Enterprises, Inc.,

(5th Cir. 1994).
