OPINION
PER CURIAM:


1
Ronald Mu'Min Owens-Bey appeals from the district court's order entering judgment for Defendants in accordance with a jury's decision that Owens-Bey was not the victim of discrimination in connection with his termination from employment.  The court, which also sat as a factfinder to the extent that issues raised under Title VII were not triable by the jury, adopted as its own the jury's findings that Owens-Bey was not discriminated against.  Our review of the record reveals that the evidence supports the decision.  Clearly, Owens-Bey lost his job because of substandard job performance, not purposeful discrimination.  We accordingly affirm the judgment of the district court.


2
As review of the record and other materials before us reveals that it would not significantly aid the decisional process, we dispense with oral argument.

AFFIRMED
