Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Felicia G. Watkins appeals the district court’s orders

denying her Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(f) motion for additional discovery,

granting Defendant’s summary judgment motion on her race and gender

discrimination and retaliation claims, brought pursuant to Title

VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e

to 2000e-17 (2000), and denying her Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) motion

for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no

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

the district court. See Watkins v. Geren, No. 1:06-cv-02728-JFM

(D. Md. June 19, 2007). 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
