DOROTHY D. HATCHETT,

Plaintiff - Appellant,

versus

JOHN POTTER, Postmaster General, United States Postal Service,

Defendant - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Richmond. James R. Spencer, District Judge. (CA-00-461)

Submitted: December 3, 2002 Decided: December 18, 2002

Before LUTTIG, WILLIAMS, and GREGORY, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Dorothy D. Hatchett, Appellant Pro Se. Debra Jean Prillaman, Assistant United States Attorney, Richmond, Virginia; Stephan James Boardman, UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE, Washington, D.C., for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Dorothy D. Hatchett appeals the district court’s order

granting Appellee’s Motion to Dismiss, or in the alternative,

Motion for Summary Judgment. We have reviewed the record and find

no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court. See Hatchett v. Potter, No. CA-00-461 (E.D. Va.

Dec. 7, 2001). 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
