Chuan-Run Chen, Appellant Pro Se. Rachel Celia Ballow, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Appellant appeals district court orders denying his motions

for appointment of counsel and additional discovery and granting

summary judgment to the defendant in his Title VII action. We have

reviewed the record and the district court's orders and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Chen v. Daley, No. CA-96-1675-A (E.D. Va. Feb. 21 & Apr. 11, 1997). 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
