PER CURIAM:
Christopher Swindell appeals from the district court’s order granting summary
judgment to Defendants in his civil action for a hostile work environment based on race
and retaliation, in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended,
42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17, retaliation, in violation of 42 U.S.C. § 1981, and wrongful
discharge, in violation of North Carolina state law. Having reviewed the record and the
parties’ briefs, we conclude that Swindell fails to establish reversible error by the district
court. We therefore affirm its judgment. Swindell v. CACI NSS, Inc., No. 5:17-cv-00617-D
(E.D.N.C. Sept. 30, 2020). 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
