Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM:
We reversed the district court’s judgment declaring unconstitutional the Texas statute requiring a person to be a United States citizen in order to be eligible for appointment as a notary public in the state of Texas.

Accordingly, we now affirm the judgment of the district court and remand for its determination on the award of attorneys’ fees.
