PER CURIAM:
Brian Christopher Robinson appeals the district
court’s order granting Defendants’ motion to dismiss his claim
under the Equal Pay Act, 29 U.S.C. § 206(d) (2006), as well as
his claims for wrongful termination, intentional infliction of
emotional distress, and breach of contract, and denying his
motion to stay the district court proceedings pending discovery
and for issuance of a scheduling order. We have reviewed the
record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny
Robinson’s motions for oral argument and to refer "special
matters" to the United States Attorney General, pursuant to Fed.
R. Civ. P. 9(b), and affirm the district court’s judgment. See
Robinson v. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, No.
1:07-cv-02102-BEL (D. Md. Sept. 25, 2008). 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
