PER CURIAM:*
Plaintiff, Sharon Mack Brown, sued the defendant, Farmers
Insurance Exchange, her employer, alleging race discrimination and
retaliation under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42

discriminatory reasons for not granting the promotions Plaintiff
sought. After adequate discovery, Defendant moved for summary
judgment and the district court granted the motion. Plaintiff
appeals.
We have carefully reviewed the briefs, record excerpts and
relevant portions of the record itself, and for the reasons stated
by the district court in its Order filed May 3, 2004, we affirm the
grant of summary judgment in favor of Defendant.
AFFIRMED.
