PER CURIAM.

      Larry Coffman, who is civilly committed to the Missouri Sexual Offender
Treatment Center, appeals the district court’s1 preservice dismissal under 28 U.S.C.

      1
       The Honorable Carol E. Jackson, Chief Judge, United States District Court for
the Eastern District of Missouri.
§ 1915(e)(2)(B) of his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaint. Following de novo review, see
Moore v. Sims, 200 F.3d 1170, 1171 (8th Cir. 2000) (per curiam), we affirm, see 8th
Cir. R. 47B, but we modify the dismissal to be without prejudice as to any claims
Coffman raised that were barred by Heck v. Humphrey, 512 U.S. 477, 486-87 (1994).
See Schafer v. Moore, 46 F.3d 43, 45 (8th Cir. 1995) (per curiam). We also deny
Coffman’s request for appointment of appellate counsel.
                       ______________________________
