Judge Motz did not participate in consideration of this
case. The opinion is filed by a quorum of the panel pursuant to 28
U.S.C. § 46(d) (1994).
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Wayne E. Williams appeals the district court’s order dismiss-
ing his civil complaint in which he alleged racial discrimination
claims. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s
opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on
the reasoning of the district court.* See Williams v. School of
Prof’l Studies in Bus. and Educ. John Hopkins Univ., No. CA-01-842-
CCB (D. Md. filed Mar. 22, 2001; entered Mar. 23, 2001). We dis-
pense 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
*
In regard to Williams’ claims concerning his March 2000
application, we generally do not consider issues raised for the
first time on appeal, except under narrow circumstances not present
here. See Muth v. United States, 1 F.3d 246, 250 (4th Cir. 1993)
(holding that issues raised for the first time on appeal generally
will not be considered absent plain error or fundamental
miscarriage of justice).
