          Appeal from a judgment of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of

New York (Irizarry, J.).

          UPON DUE CONSIDERATION, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND

DECREED that the judgment is AFFIRMED.

          Plaintiff-Appellant Osita Emmanuel Okocha, an attorney proceeding pro se, appeals the

district court’s grant of summary judgment, dismissing his complaint alleging various violations

of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and New York law. We assume the parties’ familiarity with the

underlying facts, the procedural history of the case, and the issues on appeal.

          We review orders granting summary judgment de novo and focus on whether the district

court properly concluded that there was no genuine issue as to any material fact and that the

moving party was entitled to judgment as a matter of law. See Miller v. Wolpoff & Abramson,

L.L.P., 321 F.3d 292, 300 (2d Cir. 2003). In determining whether there are genuine issues of

material fact, we are “required to resolve all ambiguities and draw all permissible factual

inferences in favor of the party against whom summary judgment is sought.” Terry v. Ashcroft,

336 F.3d 128, 137 (2d Cir. 2003) (internal quotations omitted). Summary judgment is

appropriate “[w]here the record taken as a whole could not lead a rational trier of fact to find for

the non-moving party.” Matsushita Elec. Indus. Co. v. Zenith Radio Corp., 475 U.S. 574, 587

(1986).



                                                  2
       Upon such review, we conclude that Okocha’s appeal is without merit substantially for

the reasons articulated by the district court in its well-reasoned order. Okocha v. Trans Union

LLC, No. 08-cv-3107, 2011 WL 2837594 (E.D.N.Y. Mar. 31, 2011). We have considered all of

Okocha’s remaining arguments and find them to be without merit.

       For the foregoing reasons, the judgment of the district court is hereby AFFIRMED.

                                             FOR THE COURT:
                                             Catherine O’Hagan Wolfe, Clerk
