Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Jerdonnis Murray appeals the district court’s order
dismissing for failure to state a claim his complaint alleging
retaliation, in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act
of 1964 (“Title VII”), 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17 (2012),
and common law negligence. We have reviewed the record and find
no reversible error. ∗ Accordingly, we affirm the district
court’s order. We dispense with oral argument because the facts
and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials
before this court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
∗See Boyer-Liberto v. Fountainbleau Corp., 786 F.3d 264,
284 (4th Cir. 2015) (en banc) (holding that hostile work
environment claim may be predicated on isolated incident if
harassment is physically threatening or humiliating); Wrightson
v. Pizza Hut of Am., Inc., 99 F.3d 138, 142 (4th Cir. 1996)
(recognizing that Title VII does not protect against sexual
orientation discrimination).
