Before WOLLMAN, BENTON, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.
                         ____________

PER CURIAM.

      Byron K. Daniels appeals the order of the district court1 dismissing with
prejudice his claims brought under 42 U.S.C. §§ 3604(a)-(b), (f) (the Fair Housing


      1
       The Honorable Brian S. Miller, Chief Judge, United States District Court for
the Eastern District of Arkansas.
Act); 1982 (property rights of citizens); and 1983 (civil action for deprivation of
rights). After de novo review, see Carter v. Huterson, 
831 F.3d 1104
, 1107 (8th Cir.
2016) (standard of review for grant of motion to dismiss for failure to state claim), we
conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion when it dismissed with
prejudice all of Daniels’s claims against the defendants, see Wright v. Anthony, 
733 F.2d 575
, 577 (8th Cir. 1984) (where complaint on its face showed that no cause of
action could be stated against defendants and dismissal with leave to amend would
serve no useful purpose, court clearly was acting within its discretion in dismissing
complaint with prejudice).

      The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
