Before WOLLMAN, MURPHY, and BYE, Circuit Judges.
                         ___________

PER CURIAM.

      James E. Thompson, Sr., appeals the district court’s1 order dismissing his 42
U.S.C. § 1983 lawsuit under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A. After careful review of the record,
we find that Thompson’s claims were properly dismissed, and that an extended
discussion would have no precedential value. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir.
R. 47B.
                      ______________________________
