- 2 - PER CURIAM:

Chukwuemeka F. Mbadiwe, M.D., appeals the district

court’s order granting Defendants’ motion for summary judgment and

dismissing his civil rights action, filed pursuant to

(2000), in which Mbadiwe asserted Defendants discriminated

against him on the basis of his race and national origin by

revoking and restricting Mbadiwe’s privileges to perform surgery at

Union Regional Medical Center. We have reviewed the record and

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

stated by the district court. Mbadiwe v. Union Reg’l Med. Ctr.,

No. 3:05-cv-00049 (W.D.N.C. Apr. 24, 2007). 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
