Before COLLOTON, HANSEN, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
                          ___________

PER CURIAM.

        Sherman Raines appeals the district court’s1 dismissal with prejudice of his
employment-discrimination action. We conclude that the district court acted within
its discretion in dismissing the action after Raines disobeyed two court orders which
warned him not to add claims against the United States Attorney’s Office. See Good
Stewardship Christian Ctr. v. Empire Bank, 341 F.3d 794, 797 (8th Cir. 2003)
(standard of review). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47A(a).

      1
        The Honorable Rodney W. Sippel, United States District Judge for the Eastern
District of Missouri.
