UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 05-1261

GEORGE E. PICKETT,

Plaintiff - Appellant,

versus

WASHINGTON MUTUAL BANK FA; WILLIAM WALT PETTIT; W. J. KELLAM, JR.; KELLAM & PETTIT, PA,

Defendants - Appellees.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Wilmington. James C. Fox, Senior District Judge. (CA-03-45-7)

Submitted: November 23, 2005 Decided: December 16, 2005

Before WILKINSON, LUTTIG, and SHEDD, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

George E. Pickett, Appellant Pro Se. John Weldon O’Tuel, III, WOMBLE, CARLYLE, SANDRIDGE & RICE, Raleigh, North Carolina; Vaiden Pearson Kendrick, Wilmington, North Carolina, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

George E. Pickett appeals from the district court’s order

granting summary judgment in favor of the defendants on his civil

action arising out of a lengthy dispute with his mortgage lender.

Our review of the record, including the district court’s thorough

opinion, discloses no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for

the reasons stated by the district court. See Pickett v.

Washington Mutual Bank, No. CA-03-45-7 (E.D.N.C. Feb. 2, 2005). We

deny Pickett’s motion for injunction and 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
