Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. James L. Rainey, III, Appellant Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. 2 PER CURIAM: James L. Rainey, III, appeals the district court’s order granting summary judgment in favor of Defendants on Rainey’s discrimination, harassment, and retaliation claims, brought pursuant to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e17. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. Rainey v. Yellen, No. 8:22-cv-00134-TDC (D. Md. Aug. 8, 2023). 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 3
