Estelle C. Grainger, Appellant Pro Se. Thomas Michael DiBiagio,
United States Attorney, Tarra R. DeShields-Minnis, OFFICE OF THE
UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Estelle C. Grainger appeals the district court’s order
dismissing her employment discrimination complaint without
prejudice. We conclude, as did the district court, that Grainger
failed to exhaust her administrative remedies. Accordingly, we
affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Grainger
v. Barnhart, No. CA-02-2135-S (D. Md. Oct. 21, 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
