Derek N. Jarvis, Appellant Pro Se. Thomas Joseph Flaherty, Joon
Hwang, LITTLER MENDELSON PC, McLean, Virginia, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Derek N. Jarvis appeals the district court’s order
dismissing his civil complaint alleging employment
discrimination because he failed to serve Defendant within 120
days of filing his complaint, in violation of Fed. R. Civ. P.
4(m). We find no abuse of discretion by the district court for
dismissing the complaint under Rule 4(m). See Shao v. Link
Cargo (Taiwan) Ltd., 986 F.2d 700, 708 (4th Cir. 1993)
(providing review standard). Finding no reversible error, we
affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Jarvis v.
The Paper Source, No. 1:12-cv-01454-CMH-TRJ (E.D. Va. Oct. 28,
2013). 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
