UNPUBLISHED Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Greenbelt. Roger W. Titus, Senior District Judge. (8:11-cv-03644-RWT)
Before KING and THACKER, Circuit Judges, and DAVIS, Senior Circuit Judge. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Bruce S. Rogow, Tara A. Campion, BRUCE S. ROGOW, PA, Fort Lauderdale, Florida; Bradley A. Thomas, THE LAW OFFICE OF BRADLEY A. THOMAS, Washington, D.C., for Appellant. Robert H. Rotstein, MITCHELL SILBERBERG & KNUPP LLP, Los Angeles, California, J. Matthew Williams, MITCHELL SILBERBERG & KNUPP LLP, Washington, D.C, for Appellees. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Bryant Moore appeals the district court's order granting summary judgment in favor of the Appellees on Moore's claims of copyright infringement. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See generally Moore v. Lightstorm Entm't, Inc., 992 F. Supp. 2d 543 (D. Md. 2014). 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
