AFFIRMED.
Before ERVIN and MOTZ, Circuit Judges, and CHAPMAN, Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:


1
Appellant appeals from the magistrate judge's order granting Appellee's motion for judgment as a matter of law.   We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.   Accordingly, we affirm the decision of the magistrate judge.   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


*
 The parties consented to the jurisdiction of the magistrate judge, with further appeal to this court.  28 U.S.C. § 636(c)(1), (c)(3) (1988)
