Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

      Wei-Ping Zeng appeals the district court’s order accepting the recommendations of

the magistrate judge, granting summary judgment to Defendants on Zeng’s civil claims,

and denying Zeng leave to file a third amended complaint in his action challenging the

denial of tenure and the termination of his employment at Marshall University’s Joan C.

Edwards School of Medicine. Having reviewed the record and finding no reversible error,

we affirm the district court’s judgment. We deny Zeng’s motion to file exhibits * and

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

      *
           These exhibits were already included in the record on appeal.
