Before LOKEN, BYE, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.
____________
PER CURIAM.
Kevin Pollins appeals following the district court’s1 dismissal, for failure to
prosecute and to comply with a court order, of his appeal from the denial of
supplemental security income. We conclude that the district court did not abuse its
discretion in dismissing Pollins’s case without prejudice. See Rodgers v. Curators
of Univ. of Mo.,
135 F.3d 1216, 1219 (8th Cir. 1998) (standard of review); Schooley
v. Kennedy,
712 F.2d 372, 374 (8th Cir. 1983) (per curiam) (dismissal without
prejudice mitigates against finding that court abused its discretion). The judgment
of the district court is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
