Before BOWMAN, WOLLMAN, and LOKEN, Circuit Judges.
                        ___________

PER CURIAM.

      Roy Reha, an Iowa citizen, appeals the district court’s1 dismissal of his civil
action for lack of jurisdiction. After careful de novo review, see Bueford v.
Resolution Trust Corp., 

, 484 (8th Cir. 1993), we conclude that the
action was properly dismissed for lack of federal subject matter jurisdiction.
Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47A(a).

       The Honorable Robert W. Pratt, United States District Judge for the Southern
District of Iowa.
