PER CURIAM:
David M. Shipp appeals the district court’s order granting summary judgment to
Defendant prior to formal discovery on Shipp’s complaint alleging employment
discrimination and retaliation, in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,
42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17. He also challenges the district court’s earlier order
dismissing his complaint in part for failure to exhaust his administrative remedies.* We
have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. See Shaw v. Foreman, 59 F.4th 121,
128-29 (4th Cir. 2023); Corder v. Antero Res. Corp., 57 F.4th 384, 401 (4th Cir. 2023)
(collectively stating standards). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment.
Shipp v. Hargan, No. 8:17-cv-03365-PX (D. Md. Jan. 24, 2019 & Mar. 27, 2020). We
deny Shipp’s pending motions. 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
* We previously remanded this case to the district court for the limited purpose of
determining whether Shipp timely filed his notice of appeal. The district court concluded
that he did and returned the case to this court for further review.
