PER CURIAM: Bhaskar Koukuntla, who brought an action against Toll Bros., Inc. (“Toll”) alleging, in part, that Toll refused to hire him because of his race (Asian-Indian), color (Brown), religion (Hindu), and national origin (India), in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17, and because of his age, in violation of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, 29 U.S.C. §§ 621 to 634, appeals the district court’s order (1) granting Toll summary judgment on Koukuntla’s claims and, alternatively, dismissing Koukuntla’s action as a discovery sanction, pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 37; and (2) denying Koukuntla’s several miscellaneous motions. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order.

Koukuntla v. Toll Bros., Inc., No. 5:23-cv-00701-BO-RJ (E.D.N.C. Nov. 6, 2025). 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.
