PER CURIAM.

Appellate Case: 19-2314 Page: 1 Date Filed: 01/29/2020 Entry ID: 4875762
Gerald Richter appeals the district court’s

1

dismissal of his pro se civil action

raising claims related to a prior Minnesota state-court judgment. Upon carefully

reviewing the record and the parties’ arguments on appeal, we find no basis for

reversal. See Gisslen v. City of Crystal, Minn., 345 F.3d 624, 626-27 (8th Cir. 2003)

(standard of review; district courts have no authority to review state-court decisions

because federal jurisdiction to review state-court judgments is vested exclusively in

United States Supreme Court). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

1The Honorable Eric C. Tostrud, United States District Judge for the District

of Minnesota, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable Leo I.

Brisbois, United States Magistrate Judge for the District of Minnesota.
