PER CURIAM:

      This appeal arises from Liberty Life Assurance Company of Boston’s

reduction of Stewart S. Richardson, Jr.’s monthly long-term disability benefits.

Richardson contends that Liberty wrongfully reduced his benefits in violation of

the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, 29 U.S.C. § 1001 et seq.

The district court denied his motion for summary judgment and granted Liberty’s

motion for judgment on the administrative record. Richardson appeals both

rulings. Having considered the briefs and record, and with the benefit of oral

argument, we affirm both rulings for the reasons given by the district court in its

well-reasoned order, filed April 15, 2019.

      AFFIRMED.
