1
The District Court1 granted defendants judgment as a matter of law at the close of Lonnie D. Snelling's case, and this Court affirmed.  Snelling v. Pierce, Nos. 94-2039, 94-2087, 94-2088, 94-2290, 1995 WL 224031 (unpublished per curiam), cert. denied, 116 S.Ct. 710 (1996).   Snelling now appeals the District Court's award of costs to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development and the Housing Authority of St. Louis County.   Having carefully reviewed the record and the parties' submissions, we conclude the District Court's judgment awarding costs was a proper exercise of its discretion.   Accordingly, we affirm.   See 8th Cir.  R. 47B.
