See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Andre Lamont Lynch, Sr. appeals the district court’s order

dismissing his employment discrimination action pursuant to Fed. R.

Civ. P. 37(b)(2)(C) for failure to comply with discovery.    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 Lynch v. Anne Arundel County, No. CA-00-1282-

JFM (D. Md. Oct. 24, 2000).   We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.




                                                            AFFIRMED
