Before BOWMAN, FAGG, and HANSEN, Circuit Judges.
                          ___________
PER CURIAM.

       After Central Kansas City Mental Health Services terminated Lee Autry
Robinson’s employment as a substance abuse counselor, Robinson brought this action
against the various defendants, alleging his discharge violated the Americans with
Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 12101-12213 (1994 & Supp. III 1997); the Family
Medical Leave Act, 29 U.S.C. §§ 2601-2654 (1994 & Supp. III 1997); and Robinson’s
constitutional rights to equal protection and due process. The district court granted the
defendants’ motion for summary judgment, and Robinson appeals. Having carefully
reviewed the record and the parties’ briefs, we conclude an extended discussion is not
warranted and affirm for the reasons set out in the district court’s opinion. See 8th Cir.
R. 47B.
