PER CURIAM.

       American Cyanamid Company appeals from the district court’s1 adverse grant
of summary judgment in its declaratory judgment action seeking to determine whether
Mo. Rev. Stat. § 537.060 (1994) bars an action for contribution against Cyanamid by
Saint Louis University. After de novo review, see Brown v. Home Ins. Co., 

, 1105 (8th Cir. 1999), we conclude the district court’s judgment was proper for



      1
       The Honorable Stephen N. Limbaugh, United States District Judge for the
Eastern District of Missouri.
the reasons stated in its thorough opinion. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R.
47B.

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