OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Alexandria, Virginia, for
Appellees.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals from the district court's order dismissing
without prejudice his employment discrimination action. We have
reviewed the record and the district court's order and find no
reversible error. Dodson failed to plead or prove that he had
exhausted administrative remedies or that those remedies were con-
stitutionally deficient. We dispense with oral argument because the
facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-
rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
