PER CURIAM.

      Farrel Eagle Horse appeals from the district court’s1 judgment for defendant
following a jury trial on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 denial-of-medical-care claim. To the
extent that we can consider Eagle Horse’s arguments without a trial transcript, see
Fed. R. App. P. 10(b); Schmid v. United Bhd. of Carpenters & Joiners, 
827 F.2d 384
,
386 (8th Cir. 1987) (per curiam), cert. denied, 
484 U.S. 1071
(1988), we find those
arguments unavailing. There is no indication that the jury was selected in a racially

      1
       The Honorable Karen E. Schreier, United States District Judge for the District
of South Dakota.
discriminatory manner, see Weber v. Strippit, Inc., 
186 F.3d 907
, 911 (8th Cir. 1999),
cert. denied, 
528 U.S. 1078
(2000); Scott v. James, 
902 F.2d 672
, 675 (8th Cir.), cert.
denied, 
498 U.S. 873
(1990); and there is no constitutional or statutory right to
effective assistance of counsel in a civil case, see Glick v. Henderson, 
855 F.2d 536
,
541 (8th Cir. 1988).

      Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

      A true copy.

             Attest:

                     CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT.
