PER CURIAM.

After his termination from employment with the Roberts Dairy Company

("Roberts"), Neil Lewis brought a claim of age and disability discrimination against

his former employer. Lewis's discrimination claims were submitted to the district

court1

 on the record that existed after a jury trial in which the jury failed to reach a

verdict on the merits of his case. The district court concluded that Lewis's termination

was based on a legitimate business reason and entered judgment in favor of Roberts.

The district court also found that Lewis failed to establish that he was disabled and

that Lewis's termination was not based on his age. 

Lewis claims that the district court's factual findings were clearly erroneous

and urges this court to overturn the district court's dismissal of his discrimination

claims. Having carefully reviewed the record, we find no error in the trial court's

disposition of this matter. Therefore, the judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
