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

PER CURIAM.
      In this action challenging the non-judicial foreclosure sale of his Missouri
residence, Joe Bailey appeals after the district court1 granted a Fed. R. Civ. P.
12(b)(6) motion to dismiss his complaint. Upon careful de novo review, see Levy v.
Ohl, 
477 F.3d 988
, 991 (8th Cir. 2007) (standard of review), we conclude that the
complaint was properly dismissed, as nothing in Bailey’s complaint indicated that the
challenged conduct was carried out by a party that was not the lawful holder of his
promissory note. See Lackey v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., 
747 F.3d 1033
, 1037-38
(8th Cir. 2014) (discussing rights and powers of holder of promissory note under
Missouri law); see also Fullington v. Pfizer, Inc., 
720 F.3d 739
, 747 (8th Cir. 2013)
(appellate court may affirm on any basis supported by record).

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




      1
       The Honorable Ortrie D. Smith, United States District Judge for the Western
District of Missouri.
