PER CURIAM:

            Jacob     Wearing     appeals    the      district   court’s        orders

dismissing    his   civil     action   against       Judge    Malcolm      J.   Howard

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2) (2000), and dismissing his

employment discrimination action on the ground of res judicata. We

have     reviewed   the      record    and     find     no    reversible        error.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district

court.      See   Wearing    v.   Howard,      No.    CA-03-548-5-BO       (E.D.N.C.

Mar. 15, 2004); Wearing v. Bovis Lend Lease, Inc., No. CA-03-547-5-

BO (E.D.N.C. Mar. 20, 2004). We deny Wearing’s motions for general

relief and for a jury trial and 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
