Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

      Donald Ragavage appeals the district court’s order granting summary judgment

for the Appellee on Ragavage’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) claims based on his termination

because Ragavage was not disciplined or terminated by an official with final

policymaking authority. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Ragavage v. City of

Wilmington, No. 7:15-cv-00085-FL (E.D.N.C. Nov. 3, 2016). 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

                                            2
