Before WOLLMAN, MELLOY, and GRUENDER, Circuit Judges.
                         ___________

PER CURIAM.

      Ronald Totaro appeals the district court’s1 denial of his motions for a sentence
reduction, release pending appeal, discovery, and disqualification of the district court
judge. After careful review, we find no error in the denial of these motions, and thus
we affirm the denial. See 8th Cir. R. 47A(a). We modify the district court’s August
24, 2006 order, however, to strike that portion which prohibits the Clerk of the Court
from accepting any future filings from Totaro in the case. We also deny Totaro’s
pending motion to set a briefing schedule.

      1
       The Honorable Richard H. Battey, United States District Judge for the District
of South Dakota.
