See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

          Jason L. Diedrich appeals the district court’s order

denying his attorney’s motion to withdraw as counsel and awarding

attorney fees to the City of Newport News.    We have reviewed the

record and find no reversible error.   Accordingly, we affirm for

the reasons stated by the district court.   See Diedrich v. City of

Newport News, No. CA-04-9 (E.D. Va. filed Nov. 29, 2004; entered

Nov. 30, 2004).   We dispense with oral argument because the facts

and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials

before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.



                                                          AFFIRMED
