Before BYE, SMITH, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.
                           ____________

PER CURIAM.
        Donald Copley appeals after the district court1 dismissed his civil action, and
denied his post-judgment motion.2 We deny Copley’s pending motions for a
transcript and a change of venue; and following our careful review of the record
before us, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying
the post-judgment motion, because Copley did not present circumstances justifying
relief. See In re Guidant Corp. Implantable Defibrillators Prod. Liab. Litig., 
496 F.3d 863
, 866 (8th Cir. 2007) (standard of review).

      Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                     ______________________________




      1
       The Honorable Brian C. Wimes, United States District Judge for the Western
District of Missouri.
      2
       The appeal was dismissed as untimely as to the entry of final judgment, and
has been allowed to proceed only as to the order denying post-judgment relief.
