PER CURIAM:
Paulette Harris appeals the district court’s order
granting summary judgment in favor of Appellee Creative
Hairdressers, Inc., d/b/a Hair Cuttery, in her civil action
alleging racial discrimination under 42 U.S.C. § 1981 (2000) and
negligent hiring and retention under Maryland law. We find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by
the district court in its thorough opinion. See Harris v. Creative
Hairdressers, Inc., No. CA-04-1992-JFM (D. Md. Sept. 2, 2005). 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
