Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

          James W. Hockaday appeals the district court’s order

dismissing his employment discrimination action.   We have reviewed

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

for the reasons stated by the district court.      See Hockaday v.

Brownlee, No. CA-03-149-4 (E.D. Va. July 19, 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
