PER CURIAM:
Martha Carrascal appeals the district court’s order dismissing her employment
discrimination action as a sanction for failing to comply with her discovery obligations
pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 37(b)(2)(A)(v). After reviewing the record, we conclude that
the district court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing Carrascal’s action. See Mey v.
Phillips, 71 F.4th 203, 217 (4th Cir. 2023) (stating standard). Accordingly, we affirm the
district court’s judgment. Carrascal v. Am. Airlines, Inc., No. 1:22-cv-00825-LMB-JFA
(E.D. Va. June 15, 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
