Before WOLLMAN, RILEY, and SMITH, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.

      Mwati McKenzie appeals the district court’s1 dismissal of his civil-rights action.
Upon de novo review, see Parkhurst v. Tabor, 569 F.3d 861, 865 (8th Cir. 2009), we
conclude dismissal was proper for failure to state a claim. We affirm. See 8th Cir. R.
47B.

      The Honorable Paul A. Magnuson, United States District Judge for the District
