PER CURIAM:

     Candace L. Cooper and Glenn H. Martin appeal the district

court's orders granting summary judgment to the Plaintiff on the

claim of breach of fiduciary duty as to Cooper and for violations

of North Carolina's Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations

Act, N.C. Gen. Stat. § 75D.   We have reviewed the record and the

district court's opinion and find no reversible error.   According-

ly, we affirm essentially on the reasoning of the district court.
