PER CURIAM:
John L. Boyle, Jr. appeals the district court’s order
summarily dismissing his claims for religious discrimination and
retaliation for whistle blowing, based on Title VII of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17 (2000); 42
U.S.C. § 1983 (2000); the First Amendment; and the Public Policy of
the State of Maryland; and dismissing the remaining state law
claims without prejudice. We have reviewed the record and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the order on the
reasoning of the district court. See Boyle v. Harford County, No.
CA-01-3200-BEL (D. Md. Apr. 1, 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
