David L. Bright, Appellant Pro Se. Ronda Lynn Brown, Thomas Michael Lucas, VANDEVENTER, BLACK, MEREDITH & MARTIN, Norfolk, Virginia, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Appellant appeals the district court's order dismissing his

complaint claiming employment discrimination, wrongful termination,

and intentional infliction of emotional distress. We have reviewed

the district court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accord-

ingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Bright v. Norshipco, No. CA-96-985-2 (E.D. Va. Jan. 29, 1997). Further, we

decline to address claims raised by Appellant for the first time on

appeal. See Singleton v. Wulff, 428 U.S. 106, 120 (1976); Bakker v. Grutman, 942 F.2d 236, 242 (4th Cir. 1991). 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.
