PER CURIAM:
Nora Gluth (Gluth) brought this action pursuant to the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, 29 U.S.C.
§ 1001 et seq., challenging the termination of her long-term
disability benefits under the Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation Long-Term Disability Plan (the Plan). On cross
motions for summary judgment, the district court, applying a de
novo standard of review, granted summary judgment in favor of
the Plan. In the present appeal, Gluth challenges the district
court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of the Plan.
Having reviewed the parties’ submissions, the district
court’s memorandum opinion, and the applicable law, we affirm on
the reasoning of the district court. See Gluth v. The Fed. Home
Loan Mortg. Corp. Long-Term Disability Plan, Civil Action No.
1:11-cv-1126, 2013 WL 246897 (E.D. Va. Jan. 17, 2013). 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
