Smith v. Godwin

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit November 10, 2003

Smith v. Godwin, 80 F. App'x 818 (4th Cir. 2003)

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

James Marshall Smith appeals the district court’s orders granting Defendants’ motion to dismiss his racial discrimination action under 42 U.S.C. §§ 1981-1983 (2000), Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000d to 2000d-7 (2000), and the Virginia Constitution and denying his motion for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Smith v. Godwin, No. CA-03-88-3 (E.D. Va. May 5, 2003; May 23, 2003). 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
