PER CURIAM:
In No. 11-1129, Timothy A. Jackson appeals the
district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the
magistrate judge and granting summary judgment to the Defendant
in this action alleging a violation of the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA). After carefully reviewing the record,
we conclude that Jackson failed to meet his burden of showing
that, within the relevant time period, he suffered from a
disability and was entitled to the protections of the ADA.
Jackson presented no evidence demonstrating that he was
substantially limited in a major life activity during this
period. See Pollard v. High’s of Baltimore, Inc., 281 F.3d 462,
467 (4th Cir. 2002); Rhoads v. FDIC, 257 F.3d 373, 387 (4th Cir.
2001). We accordingly affirm. *
In No. 11-1131, Jackson appeals the district court’s
order dismissing the action on the basis of res judicata. We
have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. Jackson v. Fuji Photo Film, Inc., No. 8:10-cv-01403-JMC
(D.S.C. Feb. 7, 2011).
*
“We are not limited to evaluation of the grounds offered
by the district court to support its decision, but may affirm on
any grounds apparent from the record.” United States v. Smith,
395 F.3d 516, 519 (4th Cir. 2005).
3
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
