                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Northern District of Florida
                          ________________________

                                 (September 24, 2014)

Before WILSON, ROSENBAUM, and FAY, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

      Daniel K. Schmidt, a Florida prisoner proceeding pro se, appeals the district

court’s sua sponte pre-service dismissal of Schmidt’s civil rights and Racketeer

Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act complaint under the screening provision

of 28 U.S.C. § 1915A. We agree the wholly frivolous complaint failed to state any

federal claim upon which relief can be granted and affirm for the reasons stated in

the district court’s order, No. 5:13-cv-00406-RS-GRJ, 2014 WL 51364 (N.D. Fla.

Jan. 7, 2014), adopting the Report and Recommendation of the magistrate judge.

Because there are no viable federal claims and the parties are not diverse, the

district court properly dismissed the state-law claims for lack of subject matter

jurisdiction.

      AFFIRMED.

                                          2
