Before ERICKSON, WOLLMAN, and GRASZ, Circuit Judges.
____________
PER CURIAM.
In this foreclosure-related action, Ed Teague, II, appeals after the district court1
dismissed his complaint under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). Upon
careful de novo review, we conclude the district court did not err in determining that
Teague failed to state a claim upon which relief could be granted. See Kelly v. City
of Omaha,
813 F.3d 1070, 1075 (8th Cir. 2016) (standard of review). We further
conclude the court did not abuse its discretion in failing to sua sponte allow Teague
to amend his complaint before the court dismissed it with prejudice. See Murphy v.
Aurora Loan Servs., LLC,
699 F.3d 1027, 1034 (8th Cir. 2012) (dismissal with
prejudice is appropriate where the party never submitted proposed amended
complaint or clarified what one might have contained); Carlson v. Hyundai Motor
Co.,
164 F.3d 1160, 1162 (8th Cir. 1999) (“A district court does not abuse its
discretion in failing to invite an amended complaint when plaintiff has not moved to
amend and submitted proposed amended pleading.”).
Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R.
47B.
