____________
Before COLLOTON, WOLLMAN, and ERICKSON, Circuit Judges.
____________
PER CURIAM.
Elroy Rogers appeals the district court’s1 grant of defendants’ motions to
dismiss his complaint, which he identified as being brought under the Administrative
Procedures Act. Upon de novo review, we agree with the district court that dismissal
of Rogers’s complaint was warranted. See Compart’s Boar Store, Inc. v. United
States,
829 F.3d 600, 604 (8th Cir. 2016) (dismissal for lack of subject matter
jurisdiction); Topchian v. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.,
760 F.3d 843, 848-49 (8th
Cir. 2014) (dismissal for failure to state claim). We conclude that the district court
also did not err in denying Rogers’s motions asserting judicial bias and prejudice.
See Bannister v. Delo,
100 F.3d 610, 614 (8th Cir. 1996) (reviewing for abuse of
discretion whether disqualification is required in particular case). The judgment is
affirmed, see 8th Cir. R. 47B; and Rogers’s appellate motion is denied.
