PER CURIAM:
Earnestine J. Saunders seeks to appeal the district
court’s order denying her motion filed pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P.
60(b), seeking to reopen her case following the district court’s
adverse grant of summary judgment. We affirm the district court’s
denial of relief. Rule 60(b) may not be used to relitigate claims
already decided by the court, CNF Constructors, Inc. v. Donohoe
Constr. Co., 57 F.3d 395, 400 (4th Cir. 1995), and Saunders has
raised no new ground to call into question the propriety of the
district court’s decision. 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
