PER CURIAM.

In this appeal after remand, Rhonda and Keith Thompson challenge the district

court’s1

 denial of their motion to award a statutory penalty, attorney fees, and

prejudgment interest against their insurer, Southern Farm Bureau Casualty Insurance

Company. After careful review, we find no basis for reversal. See All-Ways

Logistics, Inc. v. USA Truck, Inc., 583 F.3d 511, 518 (8th Cir. 2009) (district court’s

denial of prejudgment interest reviewed for abuse of discretion); Dupps v. Travelers

application of state law); Running M Farms, Inc. v. Farm Bureau Mut. Ins. Co., 265

S.W.3d 740, 745 (Ark. 2007); State Farm Mut. Ins. Co. v. Thomas, 871 S.W.2d 571,

573 (Ark. 1994). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
