PER CURIAM:

             Kendall R. Smith appeals the district court’s order

granting     summary       judgment     to   Verizon    Washington,        DC,    Inc.,

Smith’s former employer, in Smith’s action alleging violations

of   Title    VII     of    the    Civil     Rights    Act    of   1964,    the    Age

Discrimination in Employment Act, and the Family and Medical

Leave Act.      We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error.     Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the

district     court.        Smith   v.   Verizon   Washington,      DC,     Inc.,    No.

8:11-cv-01301-PJM (D. Md. Mar. 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

                                             3
