Before LOKEN, MURPHY, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.

      In this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, Billy Batemon appeals the district court’s1
dismissal of his complaint under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). After

      1
        The HONORABLE SUSAN WEBBER WRIGHT, United States District Judge
for the Eastern District of Arkansas.
careful de novo review, see Schaaf v. Residential Funding Corp., 517 F.3d 544, 549
(8th Cir. 2008), we agree with the district court that Batemon’s complaint was filed
outside the applicable limitations period and that he presented no basis for equitable
tolling. His remaining arguments are not properly before us or lack merit.
Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                        ______________________________
