PER CURIAM.
       Appellants, who are members the Oglala Sioux Nation (Tribe), appeal the
dismissal without prejudice of their claims against members of the Tribal government

district court’s1 thorough, well-reasoned opinion dismissing for lack of jurisdiction.
See Great Rivers Habitat Alliance v. Fed. Emergency Mgmt. Agency, 615 F.3d 985,
988 (8th Cir. 2010) (standard of review).

      The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. Appellees’ motions to strike
appellants’ supplemental addendum are granted.
