Before MURPHY, SMITH, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges.
                           ____________

PER CURIAM.
      Roscoe Chambers appeals the district court’s1 28 U.S.C. § 1915A preservice
dismissal of his pro se 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint. Upon de novo review, see
Cooper v. Schriro, 189 F.3d 781, 783 (8th Cir. 1999) (per curiam) (standard of
review), we conclude that Chambers failed to state a claim upon which relief could
be granted, see Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678 (2009) (complaint must state
“more than an unadorned, the-defendant-unlawfully-harmed-me accusation”; mere
conclusory statements are insufficient to support claim). We therefore affirm the
judgment. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                      ______________________________

      1
       The Honorable John A. Jarvey, United States District Judge for the Southern
District of Iowa.
