No. 09-2339.

Submitted: July 8, 2010.

Decided: August 24, 2010.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Alexandria. Liam O'Grady, District Judge. (1:08-cv-00777-LO-TRJ).

Arthur Willden, Appellant Pro Se. Christopher Abram Jones, Thomas Collier Mugavero, Whiteford, Taylor Preston, LLP, Falls Church, VA, William Patrick Pearce, Whiteford, Taylor Preston, LLP, Baltimore, MD, Jane Saindon Rogers, Whiteford, Taylor Preston, LLP, Washington, D.C., for Appellee.

Before WILKINSON, NIEMEYER, and SHEDD, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


Arthur Willden appeals the district court's judgment in favor of AvalonBay Communities, Incorporated, after the district court granted AvalonBay summary judgment on its claims against Willden and awarded it $7,450,902 in damages. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court's judgment. See AvalonBay Communities, Inc. v. Willden, No. 1:08-cv-00777-LO-TRJ (E.D.Va. Oct. 29, 2009). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
