                Defendants - Appellees.

CANOLES, PC, Norfolk, Virginia, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

               Serwah   Kanu     appeals       the   district     court’s    order

granting Defendants’ motion pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(c)

and     dismissing      Kanu’s    civil        action   alleging     intentional

infliction of emotional distress.                We have reviewed the record

and agree that Kanu’s complaint fails to state a claim for this

cause of action.          See Womack v. Eldridge, 215 Va. 338, 342

(1974).        Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order of

dismissal.       Kanu v. 00204 GLC, No. 1:09-cv-00726-CMH-IDD (E.D.

Va. Aug. 14, 2009).           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

                                           2
