Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Troy Easterling appeals the district court's grant of summary judgment in fa vor of Defendants, AutoZone and Brian Church, on his claims of race discrimination and retaliation under 42 U.S.C. § 1981 and Michigan law. We find no error in the district court's decision on the appealed issues and determine that no jurisprudential purpose would be served by a panel opinion. Accordingly, we affirm the district court for the reasons stated in that court's opinion.
