ON BRIEF:
Richard E. Schimel, LAW OFFICES OF RICHARD E SCHIMEL, LLC, Bethesda, Maryland, for Appellant.
John M. Quinn, ETHRIDGE, QUINN, KEMP, ROWAN &HARTINGER, Rockville, Maryland, for Appellee.
Before KING, WYNN, and HEYTENS, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Peggy Sue Keyser died-and her estate was closed-in 2015. More than six years later, Sherrie Lynn Smith filed this suit accusing Tammy Sue Martz of fraud and breach of fiduciary duty in Martz's handling of Keyser's estate. The district court granted summary judgment for Martz, holding Smith's claims were barred by the applicable statute of limitations. Reviewing that judgment de novo, see Warfaa v. Ali, 1 F.4th 289, 293-94 (4th Cir. 2021), we affirm. 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.
