District of Arkansas.

-2-

Anthony Lane appeals the district court’s1

 preservice dismissal of his 42 U.S.C.

§ 1983 action and moves to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) on appeal. We grant

Lane leave to proceed IFP, and after careful de novo review, see Moore v. Sims, 200

F.3d 1170, 1171 (8th Cir. 2000) (per curiam) (standard of review), we conclude

dismissal was proper for the reasons stated by the district court. Accordingly, we

affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. Because there is no indication that Lane was

incarcerated at the time of bringing this action, however, the dismissal does not

constitute a “strike” under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g), and we modify the judgment

accordingly. See 28 U.S.C. § 2106. We also deny Lane’s pending motions.
