PER CURIAM:

Edward Martin McKenna, Sr., appeals the district court’s order

granting summary judgment to the Appellees and denying relief on

his copyright infringement action. We have reviewed the record and

find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning

of the district court. See McKenna v. Lee, No. CA-00-911-BR

(E.D.N.C. July 2, 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
