Before RILEY, SMITH, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
                            ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Loren Longie challenges the district court’s1 order of garnishment, which was
entered to help satisfy Longie’s criminal restitution debt. On appeal, he argues that
a tribal disbursement was not subject to collection by the government because it

North Dakota.
constituted “other income” under 26 U.S.C. § 6334(a)(9). After careful review, we
conclude that section 6334(a)(9) does not apply in this case. See 18 U.S.C.
§ 3613(a)(1), (f) (United States may enforce judgment imposing fine using procedures
for enforcement of civil judgment under federal law; notwithstanding any other
federal law, judgment imposing fine may be enforced against all property or rights to
property of person fined, except that property exempt from levy for taxes pursuant to
§ 6334(a)(1)-(8), (10), and (12) shall be exempt from enforcement of judgment; in
accordance with 18 U.S.C. § 3664(m)(1)(A), all provisions of this section are
available to United States for enforcement of order of restitution).

     Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. We deny appellee’s pending
motion to supplement the record on appeal.
                      ______________________________
