PER CURIAM:
Instant Tax Service 10060, LLC and Charita Douglas
appeal the district court’s order granting TCA Financial, LLC’s
motion for summary judgment and dismissing Douglas’ claims under
the doctrine of res judicata. We have reviewed the record and
Douglas’ arguments and affirm on the reasoning of the district
court as stated during the hearing on the motion. Douglas v.
TCA Financial, LLC, No. 8:08-cv-02364-PJM (D. Md. filed Jan. 26,
2009; entered Jan. 27, 2009). Furthermore, we find Douglas
waived review of her claims regarding RICO and wrongful
termination because she failed to claim in the district court
that the claims were not barred by res judicata. Holly Hill
Farm Corp. v. United States, 447 F.3d 258, 267 (4th Cir. 2006);
Rose v. Lee, 252 F.3d 676, 687 (4th Cir. 2001).
Accordingly, we affirm. 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
