Fulbruge III Clerk No. 06-60221 _____________________ ERICA L.

PER CURIAM:* The district court was correct in its conclusion that judicial estoppel was inappropriate because it properly found that, under the facts of this case, Banks had no motive to conceal her Title VII claim and thus her failure to disclose it to the bankruptcy court was inadvertent.

AFFIRMED.

* 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 R. 47.5, the Court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
