Before WOLLMAN, MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, and MELLOY, Circuit
      Judges.
                        ___________

PER CURIAM.

      Darwin Butler appeals the district court’s1 order granting defendant’s motion
to enforce a settlement. Upon careful review of the record, we reject Mr. Butler’s
argument that the lien asserted by the Division of Child Support Enforcement

      1
       The Honorable Terry I. Adelman, United States Magistrate Judge for the
Eastern District of Missouri, to whom the case was referred for final disposition by
consent of the parties pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c).
(“Division”) was not perfected. The Division filed proper notice under Mo. Rev. Stat.
§ 454.505 thereby perfecting a lien on Mr. Butler’s settlement proceeds.
Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order enforcing the settlement agreement.
See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

      A true copy.

             Attest:

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