PER CURIAM:
Ramona Brockett appeals the district court’s order
denying Brockett’s motion for a judgment notwithstanding the
verdict or for a new trial following the jury’s verdict in favor
of Jordan Brown on his claim for defamation, and challenges the
amount of damages remitted upon the court’s grant of Brockett’s
motion for a remittitur. We have reviewed the record and find
no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons
stated by the district court. Brown v. Brockett, No.
1:11-cv-00240-JFM (D. Md. Oct. 15, 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
