See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Brian P. Nichols appeals the district court’s order granting summary judgment to the Defendant in his employment discrimination action. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin- ion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Nichols v. Comcast Cablevi- sion, No. CA-98-3091-WMN (D. Md. Jan. 19, 2000). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate- ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
