PER CURIAM This case represents an appeal by the appellant of the district court’s order granting summary judgment in favor of Alpha Pro Tech, Inc. The two basic findings were that no enforceable contract existed between appellant and appellee, and no service was rendered to justify a quantum meruit award. We review a summary judgment motion de novo. After reviewing the record and the dis- trict court’s bench ruling we find no reversible error. According- ly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Snyder v. Alpha Pro Tech, Inc., PJM 96-1932 (D. Md. August 12, 1997).
