See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Loria    Ann    Patterson    appeals   the   district   court’s   order

accepting     the    magistrate    judge’s    recommendation     to    grant

Defendant’s motion for sanctions and dismiss her claims under the

Equal Pay Act.      We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error.   Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district

court.   Patterson v. Am. Kennel Club, No. CA-01-20-5-BR (E.D.N.C.

Sept. 16, 2002).     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
