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

PER CURIAM.

       Edward Moore successfully sued ARA Services, dba Correctional Medical
Services (CMS), in a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging deliberate indifference to
Moore’s serious dental need, and a jury awarded him $9,800 in compensatory
damages. In August 2001, we affirmed the jury verdict for Moore against CMS. See
Moore v. Ernest-Jackson, 16 Fed. Appx. 517 (8th Cir. 2001) (unpublished per
curiam), cert. denied, 

(2002). CMS then deposited monies with the
district court to satisfy the judgment.

      In November 2001 Moore moved to enforce the judgment. Moore stated that
in October 2001 the State of Missouri filed an action in state court seeking
reimbursement of the costs of Moore’s incarceration under the Missouri Incarceration
Reimbursement Act (MIRA). MIRA authorizes use, for reimbursement, of 90% of
prisoner “assets,” including a money judgment from the State as a result of a civil
action against “the state, an agency thereof or any state employee or independent
contractor . . . arising from the conduct of official duties on behalf of the state.” See
Mo. Rev. Stat. §§ 217.827(1)(b) and 217.833 (2000). Moore asked the district court


                                          -2-
to enjoin the State from attaching the money CMS had deposited with the court,
arguing that the State was prohibited from doing so under our decision in Hankins v.
Finnel, 

(8th Cir.), cert. denied, 

(1992).

      Without explanation, the district court denied Moore’s motion to enforce. On
appeal, Moore adds that the state court has attached his judgment against CMS
pursuant to MIRA.

       In Hankins, the Missouri inmate plaintiff obtained a damage award in his
section 1983 action against a state prison employee. The State assumed obligation
for paying the judgment against the employee, but initiated state court proceedings
to collect, under MIRA, 90% of the amount it was to pay Hankins as a result of the
judgment. Hankins then returned to district court to proceed in aid of execution on
the judgment. The district court determined that it had authority under Federal Rule
of Civil Procedure 69 to enforce its judgment and conduct proceedings in aid of
execution and could retain ancillary jurisdiction over the State’s reimbursement claim
because it was adequately related to Hankins’s original action. The court concluded
that, as applied in Hankins’s case, MIRA was invalid under the Supremacy Clause
because the statute thwarted the objective of section 1983. The district court thus
enjoined the State from attaching funds the State had paid Hankins. See 

, 859. On appeal, we agreed that section 1983 preempted MIRA “[t]o
the extent that [MIRA] permits the State to recoup the very monies it has paid to
satisfy a section 1983 judgment against one of its employees.” We reasoned, “To
allow the State to largely recoup this award would be inimical to the goals of the
federal statute. As the district court observed, ‘neither the State nor its employees
would have the incentive to comply with federal and constitutional rights of
prisoners.’” See 

      The district court’s summary denial of Moore’s motion to enforce gives us no
guidance as to whether the court considered our decision in Hankins to be controlling.

                                         -3-
Accordingly, we remand to the district court to consider whether the reasoning of
Hankins extends to a case such as this, where CMS, a state contractor performing the
State’s duty of providing medical services to state prisoners, pays a section 1983
judgment to a prisoner, and the State then seeks to collect from the judgment under
MIRA. Upon completing its review, the district court shall enter a judgment
consistent with its determination regarding the applicability of the holding in Hankins
to the circumstances of Moore’s case. We deny Moore’s pending motions on appeal.
