Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Florida

(September 2, 2005)
Before TJOFLAT, HULL and WILSON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
This appeal challenges the district court’s decision granting appellee
summary judgment on allegations that appellee discriminated against appellant
because of his race and national origin in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights
Act of 1964, 42 § U.S.C. 2000e, et seq. Appellant raises one issue in his brief.
Whether the record, taken as a whole, and viewed in the light most
favorable to [appellant], could lead a reasonable factfinder to establish
that [appellant] was subjected to disparate treatment based on his race.
In its thoroughgoing dispositive order of October 22, 2004, the district court
answered this question in the negative. We are convinced that the court got it
right; there is nothing to send to a jury in this case. As the district court’s order
explains, appellant failed to establish a prima facie case of racial discrimination.
What is more, he failed to demonstrate that appellee’s reason for terminating his
employment was a pretext for discrimination.
AFFIRMED.
