Before FAGG, HEANEY, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges.
                              _____________

PER CURIAM.

     James Edward Banks pleaded guilty to being a felon in possession of
a firearm.    On appeal, Banks contends the district court improperly denied
Banks's motion to suppress.     A review of the record and the parties' briefs
show the ruling of the district court was correct.        Because the appeal
involves the straightforward application of settled principles of law, an
extended discussion of the issues will serve no useful purpose.       We thus
affirm for the reasons stated in the district court's order.     See 8th Cir.
R. 47B.
