Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

David Schertler, Barry Coburn, Lisa F. Fishberg, COBURN & SCHERTLER, L.L.P., Washington, D.C., for Appellant. Thomas L. McCally, William J. Carter, Tina M. Maiolo, CARR MALONEY, P.C., Washington, D.C., for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

James E. Davis appeals the district court’s order

granting summary judgment in favor of Davis’ former employer in

this employment discrimination and breach of contract action filed

under 42 U.S.C. § 1981 (2000). We have reviewed the parties’

briefs and the two-volume joint appendix and find no reversible

error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the

district court in its careful and thorough opinion. See Davis v.

Am. Soc’y of Civil Eng’rs, 330 F. Supp. 2d 647 (E.D. Va. 2004). 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
