Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Darin T. Steele appeals the district court’s order dismissing

his Title VII complaint as time-barred. We have reviewed the record

and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Ac-

cordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Steele

v. Brown, No. CA-96-728-1 (M.D.N.C. Jan. 21, 1998). 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
