Richard L. Voorhees, District Judge. (CA-98-70-5-V) Submitted: July 10, 2001 Decided: October 9, 2001 Before WILKINS and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges, and Irene M. KEELEY, Chief United States District Judge for the Northern District of West Virginia, sitting by designation. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Phyllis A. Palmieri, PALMIERI & ASSOCIATES, Morganton, North Carolina, for Appellants. Michael L. Banks, Richard G. Rosenblatt, Thomas Benjamin Huggett, MORGAN, LEWIS & BOCKIUS, L.L.P., Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). 6 PER CURIAM: In these consolidated appeals, the Appellants appeal a dis- trict court judgment adopting a magistrate judge’s memorandum and recommendation and dismissing their complaint. The Appellants further appeal the district court’s order denying a motion filed under Rule 60(b) of the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure and other orders concerning sanctions. We have reviewed the record and the district court orders and affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Kirby v. General Elec. Co., No. CA-98-70-5-V (W.D.N.C. Feb. 9, 2000; Dec. 9, 2000; Feb. 7, 2001; Feb. 26, 2001). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten- tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid in the decisional process. AFFIRMED 7
