Before FAGG, BEAM, and MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judges.
                          _____________

PER CURIAM.

        Shirlene Washington, individually and as next friend for Glenn Harris, appeals
the rulings of the district court following an adverse jury verdict in this personal injury
diversity action. After de novo review, we are satisfied the district court correctly
applied state law and the record supports the district court's rulings. We also conclude
a comprehensive opinion in this diversity case would lack precedential value. We thus
affirm on the basis of the district court's rulings without further discussion. See 8th Cir.
R. 47B. We also deny Washington's motion to strike a portion of Michelle Mascroft's
brief.

                     CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT.
