PER CURIAM:

Sydney S. Hart appeals the district court’s order granting 

summary judgment to Jacob J. Lew, Secretary of the Treasury, on 

Hart’s claims of sex discrimination and retaliation in violation 

of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e 

to 2000e–17 (2012), amended by Pub. L. No. 113-235, 128 Stat. 

2130, 2537, 2537 (2014). This Court reviews de novo whether a 

district court erred in granting summary judgment. Dulaney v. 

Packaging Corp. of Am., 673 F.3d 323, 330 (4th Cir. 2012). We 

have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. 

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district 

court. Hart v. Lew, No. 1:12-cv-03482-ELH (D. Md. filed Feb. 6, 

2015 & entered Feb. 9, 2015). 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
