1
Bobby Mobley filed this action alleging that his demotion was a retaliatory employment action in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. § 12101 et seq., and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq., and also brought state law claims under the Missouri Human Rights Act, R.S.Mo. § 213.010, and for wrongful termination and intentional infliction of emotional distress.  The district court1 granted summary judgment on the federal claims, finding that Mobley had not engaged in a protected activity under the ADA, West v. Marion Merell Dow, Inc., 54 F.3d 493, 496-97 (8th Cir.1995), and was not a member of a protected class under Title VII, Barge v. Anheuser-Busch, Inc., 87 F.3d 256, 258 (8th Cir.1996), and declined jurisdiction over the state law claims.  After fully reviewing the record, we find no error in the judgment of the district court and affirm.  See 8th Cir.  R. 47B.
