Robert L. Straitt appeals from the district court's1 order dismissing his civil action.  First, we deny Straitt's motions for contempt.  Second, having carefully reviewed the record and Straitt's brief, we conclude that dismissal was proper and that an extended opinion is not necessary.  Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed.
