PER CURIAM:
Stanleigh Maurice Wilson appeals a magistrate judge’s
order granting summary judgment to his employer on his retaliation
claim under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C.
§ 2000e-2(a)(1) (2000).* This court reviews a grant of summary
judgment de novo. Higgins v. E.I. DuPont de Nemours & Co., 863
F.2d 1162, 1167 (4th Cir. 1988). Summary judgment is appropriate
only if there are no genuine issues of material fact and the moving
party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Fed. R. Civ. P.
56(c); Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 322 (1986). This
court must view the evidence in the light most favorable to the
non-moving party. Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242,
255 (1986).
We find no reversible error and affirm for the reasons
stated by the magistrate judge. See Wilson v. Textron Flex Alloy,
No. CA-03-220-3-H (W.D.N.C. Oct. 4, 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
