PER CURIAM:
Rick Noel appeals from the district court’s order dismissing
his complaint alleging employment discrimination under 42 U.S.C.
§§ 1981, 1985 (1994). Kaiser Bellwood Corporation and James S.
Johnston appeal from the district court’s order granting Noel’s
motion to extend the notice of appeal period. We have reviewed the
parties’ briefs, the joint appendix, and the district court’s opin-
ions and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the
reasoning of the district court. See Noel v. Kaiser Bellwood
Corp., No. CA-99-654-3 (E.D. Va. July 25, 2000; Jan. 30, 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
