Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

            Derek   N.   Jarvis      appeals   the    district     court’s      order

dismissing      his       civil       complaint         alleging          employment

discrimination because he failed to serve Defendant within 120

days of filing his complaint, in violation of Fed. R. Civ. P.

4(m).    We find no abuse of discretion by the district court for

dismissing the complaint under Rule 4(m).                     See Shao v. Link

Cargo    (Taiwan)     Ltd.,    986    F.2d     700,    708    (4th       Cir.   1993)

(providing review standard).            Finding no reversible error, we

affirm for the reasons stated by the district court.                       Jarvis v.

The Paper Source, No. 1:12-cv-01454-CMH-TRJ (E.D. Va. Oct. 28,

2013).     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
