Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina, at Durham. N. Carlton Tilley, Jr., Chief District Judge. (CA-01-1131-1)

Submitted: October 7, 2004 Decided: October 13, 2004

Before WIDENER, NIEMEYER, and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

James J. Lewis, Appellant Pro Se. Thomas Henry Moore, NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Raleigh, North Carolina, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

James J. Lewis appeals the district court’s order denying

his motion to set aside his prior settlement agreement in his

employment discrimination action. We have reviewed the record and

find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons

stated by the district court on the record at the March 19, 2004,

hearing on the matter. 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
