See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
John A. Lenhart appeals the district court’s order granting
summary judgment to General Electric Company on Lenhart’s claims of
discrimination under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, 29
U.S.C.A. §§ 621-634 (West 1999 & Supp. 2001), and a related state
law claim. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s
opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, although we grant Lenhart’s
motion for leave to file additional material, we affirm on the
reasoning of the district court. See Lenhart v. Gen. Elec. Co.,
No. CA-99-174-3-MU (W.D.N.C. filed Sept. 28, 2001 & entered Oct. 1,
2001). 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
