MEMORANDUM**

2
Martin and Earlene Beckman appeal the district court's dismissal for failure to state a claim of their 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 action against Yellowstone County and Merrill H. Klundt, the Yellowstone County Clerk and Recorder.  The Beckmans contend that Klundt violated their constitutional rights by accepting for filing two federal tax liens that did not meet the requirements of Montana state law.  We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1291, and we affirm for the reasons set forth in the district court's memorandum and order filed June 19, 1995.1

AFFIRMED.

 The Beckmans' request that we reconsider this Court's holding in United States v. Winterburn, 749 F.2d 1283 (9th Cir.1984), is beyond our authority as a three-judge panel.  See United States v. Washington, 872 F.2d 874, 880 (9th Cir.1989)
