Ronald E. Jarmuth, Appellant Pro Se. Thomas Ryan Goodwin, GOODWIN & GOODWIN, L.L.P., Charleston, West Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Ronald E. Jarmuth appeals the district court’s order granting summary judgment for Charles Schwab on his action filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. § 78j (2000).

We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Jarmuth v. Charles Schwab & Co., No. CA-03-80-1 (N.D.W.

Va. Mar. 3, 2004). 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
