PER CURIAM:
Zulfiqar Kahn appeals the district court’s order granting
summary judgment to FedEx Office & Print Services, Inc., in his
civil action under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42
U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17 (2012). As the district court
ruled, Kahn failed to administratively exhaust his retaliation
claim by properly raising it with the Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission. See Balas v. Huntington Ingalls Indus.,
Inc., 711 F.3d 401, 406-09 (4th Cir. 2013). The court correctly
held that Kahn did not state a claim sufficient to withstand
summary judgment on his claims of discrimination based on
national origin and religion. His claims of procedural
irregularities in the district court entitle him to no relief.
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. Kahn v. FedEx Corporation, No. 1:14-cv-00561-GBL-IDD
(E.D. Va. May 29, 2015).
We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the materials before us
and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
