Before WOLLMAN, FAGG, and HANSEN, Circuit Judges.
                          ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Minnesota inmate DeAnthony A. Nash appeals from the district court's* 28
U.S.C. § 1915A(b) dismissal of Nash's civil complaint. Having carefully reviewed
the record and Nash's brief, see Cooper v. Schriro, 

, 783 (8th Cir. 1999)
(per curiam) (§ 1915A dismissal reviewed de novo), we conclude the district court
properly dismissed Nash's complaint, and an extended opinion is not warranted.

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

      A true copy.

             Attest:

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




      *
       The Honorable Donovan W. Frank, United States District Judge for the
District of Minnesota.
