Iray Dudley, Appellant Pro Se. Michael Anson Rhine, OFFICE OF THE
UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Norfolk, Virginia, for Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Iray Dudley appeals from the district court’s order denying

relief on his race discrimination action.    We have reviewed the

record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible

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

court.   See Dudley v. Dep’t of the Navy, No. CA-99-16-2 (E.D. Va.

Nov. 9, 1999).   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
