Before HULL, JULIE CARNES, and BARKSDALE, * Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

       Plaintiff Marie Henry sued the City of Mt. Dora and police officers Brett

Livingston and L. Severance on behalf of her minor daughter pursuant to 42 U.S.C.

§ 1983. Among other things, plaintiff alleged that these officers had arrested her

minor daughter without probable cause in violation of the latter’s constitutional

rights. The officers moved to dismiss these false arrest claims, and the district

court granted the motion. Plaintiff has appealed the district court’s judgment

dismissing these false arrest claims.

       Having heard oral argument and carefully reviewed the record, we find no

reversible error in the district court’s order dismissing plaintiff’s § 1983 false arrest

claims against the above officers. We therefore AFFIRM the district court’s order

of dismissal.

  Honorable Rhesa H. Barksdale, United States Circuit Judge for the Fifth Circuit, sitting by
designation.
