PER CURIAM.

1
Cyril A. Kolocotronis appeals from the district court's1 order dismissing for lack of subject matter jurisdiction Kolocotronis' petition for writ of mandamus, which asked the district court to order that a jury trial be granted on the state's petition that a successor guardian and conservator be appointed for Kolocotronis.

2
We agree with the district court that because it alleged no federal constitutional claim, the district court was without jurisdiction to consider Kolocotronis' petition.  Accordingly, the district court's order of dismissal is affirmed.  See 8th Cir.  Rule 47B.
