PER CURIAM:

Claudia M. Anthony appeals the district court’s order dismiss-

ing her action alleging employment discrimination in violation of

Title VII. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the

order of the district court. See Gillins v. Berkeley Elec. Coop.,

148 F.3d 413, 416-17 (4th Cir. 1998) (holding that plaintiff must

do more than merely cast doubt on the veracity of the employer’s

justification for its employment action; rather, to survive summary

judgment, the plaintiff must have developed some evidence on which

a jury could reasonably base a finding that discrimination moti-

vated the challenged employment action). 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
