Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Norfolk. Henry Coke Morgan, Jr., District Judge. (CA-02-381-2)

Submitted: May 23, 2003 Decided: July 23, 2003

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Benjamin A. Johnson, Appellant Pro Se. Daryl Eugene Webb, Jr., Kimberly W. Daniel, TROUTMAN SANDERS, L.L.P., Richmond, Virginia; Edwin Ford Stephens, CHRISTIAN & BARTON, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Benjamin A. Johnson appeals the district court’s order

dismissing his civil action on res judicata and statute of

limitations grounds. We have independently reviewed the record and

find no error in the district court’s dismissal. Accordingly, we

affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Johnson

v. Pep Boys, No. CA-02-381-2 (E.D. Va. Oct. 23, 2002). 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
