States Attorney, Allen F. Loucks, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES
ATTORNEY, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Deborah M. Melton appeals the district court’s order granting

Appellee’s motion for summary judgment in Melton’s civil action in

which she alleged claims of discrimination in her employment.    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 Melton v. Shalala, No. CA-98-2598-MJG (D.

Md. June 20, 2000).     We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.




                                                           AFFIRMED
