PER CURIAM:

      Sheron Thornton appeals the magistrate judge’s * order granting summary judgment

to her former employer on her claims that she was retaliated against for opposing race and

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

42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17 (2018), and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act

of 1967, 29 U.S.C. §§ 621-634 (2018). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the magistrate judge. Thornton v.

Dep’t of Pub. Safety & Corr. Servs., No. 1:16-cv-03028-ADC (D. Md. Mar. 11, 2019). 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

      *
       This case was decided by a magistrate judge with the parties’ consent pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (2018).
