                                ____________
Before BENTON, ERICKSON, and STRAS, Circuit Judges.
                          ____________

PER CURIAM.

       Joshua Lapin appeals following the district court’s 1 dismissal of his pro se
complaint for failure to state a claim. Having jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291,
this court affirms.

       After careful de novo review of the record and the parties’ arguments on
appeal, this court concludes that Lapin had standing to raise his claims, see
TransUnion LLC v. Ramirez, 594 U.S. 413 (2021); see also Rydholm v. Equifax Info.
Servs. LLC, 44 F.4th 1105, 1108 (8th Cir. 2022) (appellate court can review standing
for first time on appeal); and finds no basis for reversal, see Jessie v. Potter, 516
F.3d 709, 712 (8th Cir. 2008) (standard of review); First Colony Life Ins. Co. v.
Berube, 130 F.3d 827, 829 (8th Cir. 1997) (same).

      The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

        The Honorable Karen E. Schreier, United States District Judge for the
