See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Bobbie Peterson appeals the district court’s order dismissing

Peterson’s claim of employment discrimination and declining to

exercise supplemental jurisdiction over her state law claims.   We

have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion accepting

the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible

error.   Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district

court.   Peterson v. Piedmont Technical, No. CA-01-4845-8 (D.S.C.

filed Apr. 3, 2002 & entered Apr. 4, 2002).   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
