PER CURIAM:

            David A. Bardes appeals the district court’s orders

granting   Massachusetts        Mutual   Life     Insurance     Company’s     motion

for     summary     judgment      and     denying        Bardes’s   motion       for

reconsideration.         We     have   reviewed     the    record   and   find   no

reversible error.        Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated

by the district court.           Bardes v. Mass. Mut. Life Ins. Co., No.

1:11-cv-00340-CCE-JLW (M.D.N.C. Apr. 28, 2014 & June 4, 2014).

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
