PER CURIAM:

          Ann   C.   Morrill   appeals   the   district    court’s   order

dismissing her qui tam action under the False Claims Act.         We have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error.         Accordingly, we

affirm for the reasons stated by the district court.         See Morrill

v. Johns Hopkins Univ., No. CA-02-3891-1-CCB (D. Md. filed Oct. 29,

2004 & entered Nov. 1, 2004).       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
