Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Brenda C. Noe appeals the district court’s order granting, on remand, City National

Bank of West Virginia’s (“the Bank”) motion to refer to arbitration a putative class action

alleging several state law claims, including claims for breach of contract, breach of the

covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and unjust enrichment. * We have reviewed the

record and considered the parties’ arguments and find no reversible error. Accordingly,

we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Noe v. City Nat’l Bank of W. Va.,

No. 3:19-cv-00690 (S.D.W. Va. Apr. 21, 2021). We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court

and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED

* The Bank previously appealed the district court’s order denying its motion to dismiss Noe’s claims. We vacated the district court’s order, in part, and remanded the matter for the court to determine whether Noe’s claims should be referred to arbitration and, if it determined that unresolved questions of material fact prevented it from deciding the issue, directed the court to hold a hearing to resolve the issue. See Noe v. City Nat’l Bank of W. Va.,

828 F. App’x 163

, 165-67 (4th Cir. 2020) (No. 20-1230).
