Before BYE, COLLOTON, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges.
                           ____________

PER CURIAM.
      Michael Harasyn appeals the district court’s1 dismissal, for lack of subject
matter jurisdiction, of his pro se complaint claiming his rights were violated in prior
divorce and child-custody proceedings in state court. Upon consideration of
Harasyn’s arguments on appeal, and upon careful de novo review of the district
court’s dismissal, see Edwards v. City of Jonesboro, 645 F.3d 1014, 1017 (8th Cir.
2011), we agree with the district court that it lacked subject matter jurisdiction, see
Exxon Mobil Corp. v. Saudi Basic Indus. Corp., 544 U.S. 280, 284 (2005), and we
find nothing improper in the proceedings below, see 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Minn.
Majority v. Manksy, 708 F.3d 1051, 1056 (8th Cir. 2013).

      Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                     ______________________________

      1
       The Honorable Michael J. Davis, Chief Judge, United States District Court 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.
