PER CURIAM:
In this action, MEE Direct, LLC and MEE Apparel, LLC
(MEE) raised claims of unjust enrichment, breach of contract,
and breach of fiduciary duty against Defendant Tran Source
Logistics, Inc. (TSL). MEE also asserted unjust enrichment and
breach of fiduciary duty claims against Howard Cates, the
president of TSL, and sought to pierce the corporate veil. The
district court entered judgment of $368,000 for MEE on the
breach of contract claim and found for Defendants on the
remaining claims. MEE now appeals, arguing that the court
erroneously found no merit to either the unjust enrichment claim
against Cates or MEE’s attempt to pierce the corporate veil.
After careful review, we find no reversible error. Accordingly,
we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. MEE
Direct, LLC v. Tran Source Logistics, Inc., No. 1:13-cv-00455-
JKB (D. Md. Feb. 14 & Mar. 21, 2014). We dispense with oral
argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately
presented in the materials before this court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
