PER CURIAM.

       Gene Lalonde appeals the dismissal of his action seeking constructive reopening
of a previously denied claim for child disability benefits. Having carefully reviewed the
record and the parties& briefs, we affirm the judgment of the district court1 for the

for reversal in this civil action. See Glick v. Henderson, 855 F.2d 536, 541 (8th Cir.
1988).
