    Kenneth BARNETT, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. FORMOSA PLASTICS CORPORATION OF TEXAS, Defendant-Appellee.
    No. 05-40459.
    Summary Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Decided March 13, 2006.
    Lawrence D. Elliott, Law Office of Lawrence Elliott, Victoria, TX, for Plaintiff-Appellant.
    Christine Elaine Reinhard, Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld Michael Vincent Galo, Jr., Galo & Cantu, San Antonio, TX, for Defendant-Appellee.
    
      Before HIGGINBOTHAM, BENAVIDES and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

This appeal is from a district court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of an employer in a race discrimination case. Appellant contends that the district court incorrectly applied Reeves v. Sanderson Plumbing Products, Inc., 530 U.S. 133,120 S.Ct. 2097, 147 L.Ed.2d 105 (2000), and erred in finding no genuine issues of material fact with respect to his failure to promote claim.

After consideration of the briefs and record on appeal, our de novo review leads us to the inescapable conclusion that the district court correctly granted summary judgment. We affirm essentially for the reasons set forth in the memorandum and order of the district court dated March 9, 2005.

AFFIRMED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
