Before KELLY, ERICKSON, and STRAS, Circuit Judges.
                           ____________

PER CURIAM.
       Al Jabbar Salam appeals the district court’s1 without-prejudice dismissal of his
42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). After
careful review of the record and the parties’ arguments on appeal, we conclude that
the district court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing the action. See Smith v.
Gold Dust Casino, 526 F.3d 402, 404-05 (8th Cir. 2008) (standard of review).
Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. We also deny Salam’s motions to
compel.
                        ______________________________

      1
       The Honorable James M. Moody, Jr., United States District Judge for the
Eastern District of Arkansas, adopting the report and recommendations of the
Honorable Beth M. Deere, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District of
Arkansas.
