PER CURIAM:

             Perry Brown appeals the district court’s final order

of judgment entered after a jury returned a defense verdict in

Brown’s civil action.       We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error.     Accordingly, we affirm.           Brown v. Maryland,

No. 8:07-cv-01956-PJM (D. Md. Feb. 23, 2009).                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
