PER CURIAM:

Cassie V. Morton appeals the district court’s order 

granting defendant’s motion for summary judgment in this action 

alleging retaliatory discharge under the Family Medical Leave 

Act. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. 

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district 

court. Morton v. Shearer’s Foods, No. 1:14-cv-00047-GEC-PMS 

(W.D. Va. Sept. 8, 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
