PER CURIAM:

           Ramona    Brockett   appeals   the    district   court’s     order

denying   Brockett’s   motion   for   a   judgment    notwithstanding     the

verdict or for a new trial following the jury’s verdict in favor

of Jordan Brown on his claim for defamation, and challenges the

amount of damages remitted upon the court’s grant of Brockett’s

motion for a remittitur.        We have reviewed the record and find

no reversible error.       Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons

stated    by   the   district    court.         Brown v.    Brockett,    No.

1:11-cv-00240-JFM (D. Md. Oct. 15, 2013).            We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately

presented in the materials before this court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.

                                                                  AFFIRMED
