PER CURIAM:

Roosevelt Johnson appeals the district court’s order 

denying relief on his civil complaint in which he alleged that 

the termination of his employment was the result of retaliation, 

in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as 

amended, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17 (2012), and 42 U.S.C. 

§ 1981 (2012). We have reviewed the record and find no 

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated 

by the district court. Johnson v. Norfolk S. Ry. Co., No. 1:14-

cv-04002-JFM (D. Md. filed Nov. 13, 2015; entered Nov. 16, 

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
