PER CURIAM.

Calvin C. Hollowell appeals the district court's dismissal of his civil rights action

in which he alleged numerous violations of 42 U.S.C. §§ 1983, 1985, and 1986, and

the First and Fourth Amendments. Three appellees cross-appeal the district court's

denial of a motion to recuse, and one appellee appeals the denial of his motion for

sanctions. Having reviewed the record and the parties' briefs, we conclude the court

correctly dismissed Hollowell's action for failing to state a claim. Likewise, the court

properly denied the recusal and sanctions motions. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
