Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Florence. C. Weston Houck, Senior District Judge. (CA-99-292-4-12) Submitted: December 22, 2003 Decided: February 2, 2004 Before WILKINSON, MOTZ, and GREGORY, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Chalmers C. Johnson, CHALMERS JOHNSON LAW FIRM, Charleston, South Carolina, for Appellant. John E. Schmidt, III, Kerry B. McTigue, NELSON MULLINS RILEY & SCARBOROUGH, L.L.P., Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellees. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Leon Harrell appeals the district court’s orders denying his disability claim under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, 29 U.S.C. §§ 1001-1168 (2000), his request for sanctions under 29 U.S.C. § 1132, his requests for attorneys’ fees and costs, and his request for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court in its various orders. See Harrell v. CNA Insurance Co., No. CA-99-292-4-12 (D.S.C. filed Jan 15 and entered Jan. 16, 2003; Jan. 21, 2003; May 14, 2003; May 15, 2003). 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 - 2 -
