               Appeal from the United States District Court
                  for the Northern District of Georgia
                     ________________________

                             (July 18, 2008)
Before EDMONDSON, Chief Judge, PRYOR, Circuit Judge, and JOHNSON,*
District Judge.

PER CURIAM:

       This diversity case centers on a controversy on whether Plaintiff was

entitled to restricted or unrestricted shares of stock. Plaintiff says unrestricted.

The District Court granted summary judgment to Defendants on the ground that no

enforceable contract existed between the parties for unrestricted shares of stock.

We affirm the judgment: as a matter of law, insufficient evidence supports the

contention that unrestricted shares were contemplated by the parties.

       On the issues dealing with sanctions, we conclude that the district court did

not abuse its discretion.

       AFFIRMED.

  *
     Honorable Inge P. Johnson, United States District Judge for the Northern District of Alabama,
sitting by designation.
