Opinion

No. 06-1696.

Submitted: March 22, 2007.

Decided: March 27, 2007.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Alexandria. Gerald Bruce Lee, District Judge. (1:05-cv-00957-GBL).

Peter C. Cohen, Charlson Bredehoft Cohen, P.C., Reston, Virginia, for Appellant. Seth C. Berenzweig, Jeffrey L. Rhodes, Albo Oblon, LLP, Arlington, Virginia, for Appellee.

Before WIDENER and WILKINSON, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge.


Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


Leanna Rizkalla appeals the district court's order granting summary judgment in favor of her employer, Engineering, Management, Integration, Inc., on her claim of retaliation brought under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17 (2000). Summary judgment is appropriate only if, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the non-moving party, there are no genuine issues of material fact in dispute and the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 411 U.S. 242, 255, 106 S.Ct. 2505, 91 L.Ed.2d 202 (1986); Evans v. Technologies Applications Serv. Co., 80 F.3d 954, 958 (4th Cir. 1996). We have thoroughly reviewed the briefs and joint appendix and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Rizkalla v. Engineering, Mgmt., Integration, Inc., No. 1:05-cv-00957-GBL, 2006 WL 4459434 (E.D.Va. Aug. 29, 2006). 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 decision making process.

AFFIRMED.
