                       Submitted: October 13, 2003
                           Filed: October 23, 2003
                                ___________
Before RILEY, McMILLIAN, and SMITH, Circuit Judges.
                            ___________

PER CURIAM.

       David Fischer appeals from the district court’s1 order (1) declining to
reconsider the denial of his request to continue the scheduled trial date in his civil
rights action; (2) denying his motion to disqualify Judge Wright; and (3) dismissing
his case with prejudice for failure to submit pretrial filings.

       Because Fischer appeals only from the order dismissing Michael Holdren and
Shane Sandridge, we dismiss the appeal as to all other listed appellees. As to the
order appealed, we have carefully reviewed the record and the parties’ briefs, and we
find no abuse of discretion. Accordingly, we dismiss in part, and affirm. See 8th Cir.
R. 47B.

                       ______________________________

      1
       The Honorable Scott O. Wright, United States District Judge for the Western
District of Missouri.
