PER CURIAM:

      Mary Lou Button appeals the district court’s order granting

summary judgment to Chesapeake Appalachia, LLC (“Chesapeake”),

but denying Chesapeake’s cross-claim, in Button’s civil action

regarding the tax foreclosure sale of her property.                     We have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error.                Accordingly,

we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court.                   Button

v.   Chumney,   No.   1:13-cv-00232-IMK-JSK      (N.D.    W.    Va.    June   27,

2014).     Because we affirm the district court’s grant of summary

judgment, we dismiss as moot Chesapeake’s cross-appeal of the

same order.     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.

                                                        No. 14-1752 AFFIRMED
                                                       No. 14-1777 DISMISSED
