    E.D.Va.

    AFFIRMED.

    Before LUTTIG, Circuit Judge, and BUTZNER and CHAPMAN, Senior Circuit Judges.

    PER CURIAM:

    OPINION

    1

    Mary E. Miles appeals from the district court's order dismissing with prejudice her civil action on res judicata grounds. Our review of the record discloses that this appeal is without merit because this action involved the same claims and parties as one of Miles's previous actions, which was decided on the merits. See Keith v. Aldridge, 900 F.2d 736, 739 (4th Cir.), cert. denied, 498 U.S. 900 (1990) (holding that res judicata bars re-litigation of claims previously decided on the merits against plaintiff). Accordingly, we affirm the order of the district court. 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
