PER CURIAM:

      Ronald I. Nance appeals from the district court’s order award-

ing summary judgment to the Postal Service on his employment dis-

crimination claims. Our review of the record, the parties’ briefs,

and the district court’s opinion discloses no reversible error.

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

United States v. Henderson, No. CA-99-257 (M.D.N.C. June 15, 2000).

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
