Before WOLLMAN, RILEY, and GRUENDER, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.

       In this appeal after remand, Rhonda and Keith Thompson challenge the district
court’s1 denial of their motion to award a statutory penalty, attorney fees, and
prejudgment interest against their insurer, Southern Farm Bureau Casualty Insurance
Company. After careful review, we find no basis for reversal. See All-Ways
Logistics, Inc. v. USA Truck, Inc., 583 F.3d 511, 518 (8th Cir. 2009) (district court’s
denial of prejudgment interest reviewed for abuse of discretion); Dupps v. Travelers

      1
        The Honorable James M. Moody, United States District Judge for the Eastern
District of Arkansas.
Ins. Co., 80 F.3d 312, 313 (8th Cir. 1996) (de novo review of district court’s
application of state law); Running M Farms, Inc. v. Farm Bureau Mut. Ins. Co., 265
S.W.3d 740, 745 (Ark. 2007); State Farm Mut. Ins. Co. v. Thomas, 871 S.W.2d 571,
573 (Ark. 1994). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
