PER CURIAM:

       Rose Ure Mezu appeals the district court’s judgment and its

order denying her Fed. R. Civ. P. 50 and Fed. R. Civ. P. 59

motions,      after   a   jury     found    in    Defendants’         favor     on    Mezu’s

claims alleging retaliation, in violation of Title VII of the

Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to

2000e-17      (2012),        and    retaliation          in     violation        of,        and

interference       with      her   rights   guaranteed          by,    the     Family       and

Medical    Leave      Act,    29   U.S.C.    §§ 2601-2654            (2012).         We    have

considered the parties’ arguments and have reviewed the record

and    find   no     reversible     error.         Accordingly,         we     affirm      the

district      court’s     judgment    and       order.        Mezu    v.     Morgan       State

Univ., Nos. 1:09-cv-02855-WMN; 1:11-cv-03072-WMN (D. Md. filed

Jun.   13,    2014,     entered     Jun.    23,    2014;       Aug.     21,    2014.        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.
