PER CURIAM.

Cynthia Jiles appeals the district court’s1

 preservice dismissal of her

employment-discrimination action. Upon de novo review, see Moore v. Sims, 200

F.3d 1170, 1171 (8th Cir. 2000) (per curiam), we agree with the district court that the

complaint failed to state a claim, see Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 129 S. Ct. 1937, 1950-52

(2009) (assuming veracity of well-pleaded factual allegations, court should determine

whether they plausibly give rise to entitlement to relief). Accordingly, we affirm.

See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
