Before SHEPHERD, ARNOLD, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.
                          ____________

PER CURIAM.

     Charles LaLiberte appeals after the district court1 dismissed his pro se
complaint. Upon careful review, we find no reason to reverse the dismissal order

      1
      The Honorable Stephen R. Bough, United States District Judge for the
Western District of Missouri.
because, among other reasons, we agree with the district court that it had no personal
jurisdiction over defendants. See World-Wide Volkswagen Corp. v. Woodson, 
444 U.S. 286
, 291-92 (1980) (nonresident defendant must have minimum contacts such
that suit “does not offend traditional notions of fair play and substantial justice”);
Miller v. Nippon Carbon Co., 
528 F.3d 1087
, 1090-91 (8th Cir. 2008) (de novo
review). Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R.
47B.
