PER CURIAM.

Buck D. Jones (Buck) appeals the district court’s 1 dismissal of an action he and his wife Robbie R. Jones, now deceas ed, brought under 42 U.S.C. §§ 1983 and 1985. Having conducted de novo review of the record, see Gisslen v. City of Crystal, Minn.
, 345 F.3d 624, 626-27 (8th Cir. 2003) (determination as to subject matter jurisdiction is reviewed de novo), cert. denied , 541 U.S. 960 ( 2004), we conclude that the Joneses’ illegal-exaction claim--the only clai m Buck addresses in his brief, and thus the only one before us--was barred under the Rooker-Feldman 2 doctrine, see Exxon Mobil Corp. v. Saudi Basic Indus. Corp. , 125 S. Ct. 1517, 1521-22 (2005) (RookerFeldman doctrine applies to cases brought bystate-court losers complaining of injuries caused by state-court judgments rendered before federal proceedings were commenced, and inviting federal district courts to review and reject those judgments). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. We deny both the University of
Arkansas at Fort Smith’s motion for sancti ons and Buck’s request to disqualify the University’s counsel.
