Before HANSEN, MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.

1
Vern C. Top Bear appeals from the district court's1 dismissal without prejudice of his habeas petition, and dismissal of his claim for damages, both brought under the Indian Civil Rights Act, 25 U.S.C. §§ 1301-1342.  After carefully reviewing the record and the parties' briefs, we conclude dismissal was proper.  Accordingly, we affirm.  See 8th Cir.  R. 47B.

We deny Top Bear's motion for a preliminary injunction.
