PER CURIAM.

       Chidi N. Anunka appeals from the district court’s1 dismissal of his 42 U.S.C. §
1983 action as time-barred. Having carefully reviewed the record and the parties’
briefs, we agree that the complaint was filed after the expiration of the applicable six-
year limitations period, see Owens v. Okure, 488 U.S. 235, 249-50 (1989); Berg v.
Groschen, 437 N.W.2d 75, 77 (Minn. Ct. App. 1989), and that the circumstances did

      1
        The HONORABLE JOHN R. TUNHEIM, United States District Judge for the
District of Minnesota, adopting the report and recommendations of the HONORABLE
FRANKLIN L. NOEL, United States Magistrate Judge for the District of Minnesota.
not justify equitable tolling, see Wilson v. Garcia, 471 U.S. 261, 269 (1985); Ochs v.
Streater, Inc., 568 N.W.2d 858, 860 (Minn. Ct. App. 1997). Accordingly, we affirm.
See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
