PER CURIAM.

Teresa Polite appeals the district court’s1

 dismissal without prejudice of her

civil rights action for failure to comply with a court order. Upon careful review, we

conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing the action.

F.3d 717, 718-19 (8th Cir. 2002) (Rule 37(b) dismissal). We also decline to consider
