Greensboro, North Carolina, for Appellees.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Herbert Hayes appeals the denial of his motion for a new trial
after judgment was entered against him based upon a jury verdict in
his employment discrimination action under 42 U.S.C. § 1981
(2000).* We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
We therefore affirm. See Hayes v. Jacobs Eng’g Group Inc., No. CA-
00-63-1 (M.D.N.C. Apr. 23, 2002). 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
*
The parties consented to the jurisdiction of a magistrate
judge under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (2000).
