PER CURIAM:
Mark A. Ward appeals the district court’s order awarding
summary judgment to Peter A. Malony and dismissing his claim for
wrongful denial of disability benefits. We have reviewed the
record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for
the reasons stated by the district court. See Ward v. Maloney, No.
CA-02-467-1 (M.D.N.C. filed June 14, 2004 & entered June 15, 2004).
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
