Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Jerome Rusley Bonds, Sr., Appellant Pro Se. Agnis Chandra Chakravorty, WOODS, ROGERS & HAZLEGROVE, Roanoke, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Jerome Bonds appeals the district court’s order granting

summary judgment in favor of Norfolk Southern Railway Company on

Bonds’ claims of employment related discrimination. See Title VII

of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C.A. §§ 2000e - 2000e-17

(West 1994 & Supp. 1999). We have reviewed the record and the dis-

trict court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly,

we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Bonds v.

Norfolk Southern Railway Co., No. CA-98-500-7 (W.D. Va. May 18,

1999). 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
