Greensboro, North Carolina, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

      Herbert Hayes appeals the denial of his motion for a new trial

after judgment was entered against him based upon a jury verdict in

his   employment   discrimination   action   under   42   U.S.C.    §   1981

(2000).*   We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

We therefore affirm.   See Hayes v. Jacobs Eng’g Group Inc., No. CA-

00-63-1 (M.D.N.C. Apr. 23, 2002).       We dispense with oral argument

because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in

the materials before the court and argument would not aid the

decisional process.

                                                                   AFFIRMED

      *
       The parties consented to the jurisdiction of a magistrate
judge under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (2000).
