CHRISTOPHER'S CREATIVE DESIGN, INC.,

a.k.a Christopher's Christmas Party Gifts & Antiques,

CHRISTOPHER JAMES,

Plaintiffs-Appellants,

versus

CITY OF NORTH PALM BEACH,

Defendant-Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Southern District of Florida

(May 18, 2006)

Before TJOFLAT, DUBINA and HILL, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

This is an appeal from a final judgment and order granting summary judgment in favor of the Village of North Palm Beach. The district court held that plaintiff failed to show the essential element of its claim under 42U.S.C. § 2000cc, the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act, that the sign ordinance of the Village of North Palm Beach was a substantial burden on its exercise of religious rights. Finding no reversible error in this holding, the judgment is due to be affirmed.

AFFIRMED.
