PER CURIAM.

      1
      The Honorable Richard H. Kyle, United States District Judge for the District
of Minnesota, sitting by designation.
       The District Court2 dismissed plaintiff Elmer C. Oberhellmann's lawsuit with
prejudice as a sanction for plaintiff's repeated, knowing failure to adhere to the Federal
Rules of Civil Procedure. Plaintiff appeals. Having reviewed the case, we are
thoroughly satisfied the District Court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing
plaintiff's case with prejudice. Accordingly, we affirm.

      AFFIRMED. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

      A true copy.
