Rosetta Rushing, Appellant Pro Se. James Stuart Gilmore, III, Attorney General, Ronald Nicholas Regnery, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

In this employment discrimination action, Appellant appeals

from the district court's orders granting Defendants' motion to

dismiss certain of her claims and granting summary judgment as to

the remainder. We have reviewed the record and the district court's

opinions and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Rushing v. Virginia, No. CA- 95-168-4 (E.D. Va. Mar. 28 & July 5, 1996). In addition, because

Appellant has already paid the filing fee, we deny her motion to

proceed in forma pauperis. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

AFFIRMED
