PER CURIAM:

          This case arises under diversity of citizenship jurisdiction and involves a loan that

the Appellants, Diamond Falls Estates, LLC, Shirley M. Buafo, and Charles K. Buafo,

obtained from Nantahala Bank & Trust Company (“Nantahala”) to develop a North

Carolina property. The district court granted summary judgment in favor of Nantahala on

the Appellants’ claims and on Nantahala’s counterclaims.

          Appellants present the following issues for our review:

   I.        Whether the district court erred by granting Nantahala’s motion for
             summary judgment on the breach of contract claim;

   II.       Whether the district court erred by granting Nantahala’s motion for
             summary judgment on the breach of fiduciary duty and constructive
             fraud claims;

   III.      Whether the district court erred by granting Nantahala’s motion for
             summary judgment on the negligent and fraudulent misrepresentation
             claims; and

   IV.       Whether the district court erred by granting Nantahala’s motion for
             summary judgment on the unfair and deceptive trade practices claim.

          Having had the benefit of full briefing and oral argument, and having fully

considered the parties’ contentions, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court

in its thorough memorandum opinion. Diamond Falls Estates, LLC v. Nantahala Bank &

Trust Co., No. 2:14-cv-00007-MR-DLH (W.D.N.C. Sept. 8, 2015).
