Edmond E. Chang, Judge.
Order
Pamela McKinney contends that the Federal Emergency Management Agency ter-­‐‑
minated her employment in retaliation for a complaint about discrimination. After a tri-­‐‑
al, the jury returned a verdict for the defendant. McKinney asks for another trial on the
grounds that one juror was biased, that one witness contradicted evidence given under
oath before the trial, and that her two retained attorneys were incompetent. McKinney

briefs and oral argument, we do not find any legal error or abuse of discretion in that
decision. For substantially the reasons given by the district judge, the decision is
AFFIRMED.
