PER CURIAM:


This case returns here following our remand to the District Court on the issue of damages.1  The District Court has now redetermined damages fixing the amount at $1,080,000, plus certain incidental factors of $6050. In our view the criteria applied by the District Court to reach its conclusions were permissible standards and we see no adequate basis for disturbing its conclusions.

Affirmed.
