SANDRA HODGES,

LEONARD GREEN, Clerk
Plaintiff-Appellant,
v.

On Appeal from the United
States District Court for the
Southern District of Ohio

PSYCHIATRIC PROFESSIONAL SERVICES,
INC.; UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI,
Defendants-Appellants.

/
Before:

GUY, COLE, and ROGERS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

Plaintiff Sandra Hodges appeals from summary judgment entered

in favor of the University of Cincinnati and Psychiatric Professional Services, Inc., on her
claims of employment discrimination on the basis of age and gender, as well as retaliation
for taking FMLA leave and wrongful termination for consulting an attorney in violation of
Ohio public policy. After de novo review of the record and consideration of the arguments
presented on appeal, and having had the benefit of oral argument, we are convinced that there
are no genuine issues of material fact for trial and that the district court did not err in its
conclusions as to any of the issues raised on appeal. Because the district court’s opinion
clearly articulates the reasons for its decision, issuance of a detailed written opinion by this

court would be duplicative and would serve no useful purpose. Accordingly, for the reasons
set forth in the district court’s decision granting summary judgment to the defendants, the
judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
