PER CURIAM:
Lawrence Eliot Mattison appeals the district court’s order granting Defendants’
motion to dismiss and dismissing Mattison’s employment discrimination action, brought
under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-
17, and 42 U.S.C. § 1981, for failure to state a claim. We have reviewed the record and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order and judgment.
Mattison v. Wilkie, No. 4:19-cv-00018-RAJ-LRL (E.D. Va. Feb. 10, 2020). 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
