1Opinion of the Court
JOHN R. BROWN, Circuit Judge:
The appellant, Hiram Amburgey, appeals from summary judgment for his former employer, Corhart Refractories, in this action under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act. 1 Because there is no evidence giving rise to any genuine issue of material fact such that a factfinder could reasonably find that the company discriminated against Amburgey on the basis of his age in failing to transfer him when it closed its factory, we affirm the district court’s summary judgment.
