Check Treatment

*1 Before BLACK and WILSON, Circuit Judges, and HILL, Senior Circuit Judge. PER CURIAM:

The Family and Medical Leave Act, 29 U.S.C. §§ 2601– 2654 (FMLA), ensures that employees may take up to twelve weeks of unpaid leave due to, among other things, serious medical conditions. 29 U.S.C. § 2612(a)(1)(D). As the district court *2 reasoned, a plaintiff suffers no FMLA injury when she receives all the leave she requests, and indeed is paid for most of it. Nor does she have a claim for retaliation based on a supervisor’s memorandum warning the employee against future non- FMLA absences.

Accordingly, the district court’s grant of summary judgment to the Defendants is affirmed based upon the holding and the rationale contained in the district court’s September 28, 1998, order, a copy of which is attached as Appendix A hereto. [1] AFFIRMED.

1 On September 30, 1998, the district court amended its order to remand Graham’s state law claims to state court instead of dismissing them. The amendment does not affect the basis for our affirmance.
