PER CURIAM:

Amy Gosnell and Ann Bowman appeal the district court’s 

judgment granting Defendants’ motion to dismiss their gender 

discrimination claims, brought pursuant to Title VII of the 

Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 

2000e-17 (2012); age discrimination claims, brought pursuant to 

the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, 29 

U.S.C. §§ 621 to 634 (2012); and state law claims for tortious 

interference with contract, defamation, and punitive damages. 

We have considered the parties’ arguments and find no reversible 

error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment. 

Gosnell v. Catawba Cnty., No. 5:14-cv-00179-RLV-DCK (W.D.N.C. 

July 24, 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
