[NOT FOR PUBLICATION–NOT TO BE CITED AS PRECEDENT]

United States Court of Appeals For the First Circuit

No. 99-1720

DELORIS HENDERSON,

Plaintiff, Appellant,

v.

METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY,

Defendant, Appellee.

APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE DISTRICT OF MASSACHUSETTS

[Hon. Edward F. Harrington, U.S. District Judge]

Before

Torruella, Chief Judge, Cyr, Senior Circuit Judge, and Lipez, Circuit Judge.

Deloris Henderson on brief pro se. Allan M. Marcus on brief for appellee.

MARCH 14, 2000 Per Curiam. After carefully reviewing the record,

we affirm substantially for the reasons stated by the

district court. The record raises no genuine issue about

the reasonableness of MetLife’s decision. See Terry v.

Bayer Corporation,

145 F.3d 28, 40

(1st Cir. 1998); Doyle v.

Paul Revere Life Insurance Company,

144 F.3d 181, 184

(1st

Cir. 1998). The appellant failed to show that her

condition, manifested predominantly in dizzy spells,

prevented her from performing the tasks required by her job.

Affirmed. Loc. R. 27(c).
