                                  ____________

Before LOKEN, BOWMAN, and GRUENDER, Circuit Judges.
                          ____________

PER CURIAM.

       Jerome Bargo appeals from the adverse judgments in his related 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983 actions. In the case underlying appeal No. 18-1340, the District Court1
disposed of the action in pre-service dismissal and summary judgment orders. After
careful review of the record and the parties’ arguments on appeal, we conclude there
is no basis for reversal. See Peterson v. Kopp, 

, 598 (8th Cir. 2014)
(reviewing de novo the grant of summary judgment); Strandlund v. Hawley, 

, 745 (8th Cir. 2008) (reviewing for abuse of discretion the dismissal of misjoined
parties); Moore v. Sims, 

, 1171 (8th Cir. 2000) (per curiam) (reviewing
de novo pre-service dismissal).

      In the case underlying appeal No. 17-2376, the District Court2 dismissed the
action based on res judicata and failure to state a claim. We have reviewed the
record, and we conclude that dismissal was appropriate. See Kelly v. City of Omaha,



      ¹The Honorable Kristine G. Baker, United States District Judge for the Eastern
District of Arkansas, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable
Judge Jerome T. Kearney, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District of
Arkansas.
      2
       The Honorable James M. Moody, Jr., United States District Judge for the
Eastern District of Arkansas, adopting the report and recommendations of the
Honorable Patricia S. Harris, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District
of Arkansas.

                                         -3-


, 1075 (8th Cir. 2016) (reviewing de novo the grant of a motion to
dismiss for failure to state claim under Rule 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure); Laase v. Cty. of Isanti, 

, 856 (8th Cir. 2011) (“We review
de novo the grant of a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim based on
res judicata.”).

      We affirm in both cases.
