Before BOWMAN, BEAM, and LOKEN, Circuit Judges.
                          ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Belinda Ann Stevenson appeals following the district court’s1 June 15, 2000
denial of her motion to reopen her case. Having carefully reviewed the record and
Stevenson’s submissions, we conclude the district court did not abuse its discretion in
denying the motion. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b); Sanders v. Clemco Indus., 862 F.2d
161, 169 & n.14 (8th Cir. 1988). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

             Attest:

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

      1
       The HONORABLE CHARLES R. WOLLE, United States District Judge for
the Southern District of Iowa.
