United States Court of Appeals,Eighth Circuit.
Submitted:  Aug. 10, 1995Filed:  Sept. 8, 1995

Before WOLLMAN, MAGILL, and HANSEN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.

1
Bobby R. Smith appeals from the district court's1 order denying his motion to alter or amend the judgment or, alternatively, for a new trial on the issue of damages, and order partially denying him attorneys' fees and taxing costs against plaintiff, after a jury verdict in his 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 and state tort action.  We have carefully reviewed Smith's arguments, and we conclude that the district court correctly denied Smith's motions in its well-reasoned orders.

2
The judgment is affirmed.  See 8th Cir.  R. 47B.
