2 PER CURIAM:

Ronnie Clarke appeals the district court's order

dismissing his claims against Defendants alleging violations of

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C.

§§ 2000e to 2000e-17 (2000), and 42 U.S.C. §§ 1981, 1983 (2000),

as well as several other federal and state law claims. We have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly,

we deny Clarke’s application to proceed in forma pauperis, deny

his self-styled "motion to grant summary judgment,” and affirm

the district court’s order. See Clarke v. Ashby, No. 3:07-cv-

00574-REP (E.D. Va. July 8, 2008). 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
