PER CURIAM.

       Missouri inmates Bobby Dean Lewis, Rolf A. Rosendahl, and Stanley Paul
Smith appeal from orders dismissing two identical versions of their 42 U.S.C. § 1983
action. Having carefully reviewed the record, we conclude the district courts' orders
were correct, and these consolidated appeals are entirely without merit. Accordingly,
we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47A(a).

      A true copy.

             Attest:

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