PER CURIAM: Debra E. Barry appeals a district court order granting judg- ment as a matter of law to the City of Virginia Beach in a disabil- ity discrimination action filed by Barry pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Civil Rights Act of 1991. On appeal, Barry maintains that the district court erred in: (1) finding there was no dispute as to the essential functions of the Master Police Officer position; (2) finding that the evidence failed to establish that the Virginia Beach Police Department had permanent light duty positions that could have been offered to Barry as reasonable accommodation; and (3) refusing to admit the transcript of the prior testimony of Officer Gary Michael Van Aucken.
We have reviewed the briefs and joint appendix and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and oral argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
