Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Raymond L. Semler appeals the district court's dismissal of his lawsuit raising 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and state-law claims. Upon de novo review, see Allen v. Purkett, 5 F.3d 1151, 1153 (8th Cir.1993) (per curiam), we agree with the district court that dismissal was proper because Semler's claims were barred by res judicata. The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
. The Honorable Joan N. Ericlcsen, United States District Judge for the District of Minnesota, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable Raymond L. Erickson, United States Magistrate Judge for the District of Minnesota.
