Decided May 13, 1971

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of North Carolina, at Charlotte; James B. McMillan, Judge.

Paul B. Guthery, Jr., Charlotte, N. C. (Bradley, DeLaney & Millette, Charlotte, N. C., on the brief), for appellant.

Edgar Love, III, Charlotte, N. C. (Kennedy, Covington, Lobdell & Hickman, Charlotte, N. C., on the brief), for appellee.

Before BRYAN, BUTZNER and RUSSELL, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:


Averring that his contract with LHP Corporation to represent it as a sales agent had been unjustifiably terminated, M. L. Johnston sues for damages said to have been suffered in consequence. The District Court dismissed on the defendant's motion for summary judgment.

Our reading of the record and consideration of the arguments, on brief and orally, disclose no error in the dismissal. The judgment of the District Court will be affirmed.

Affirmed.
