                                  ____________

Before BENTON, BOWMAN, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.
                         ____________

PER CURIAM.
      Erwin Jefferson appeals from the judgment of the District Court1 granting
defendants’ motion to dismiss the civil rights action he brought under 42 U.S.C.
§§ 1981, 1983, and 1985, in which he challenged Nebraska probate proceedings. We
have carefully reviewed the record and the parties’ submissions on appeal, and we
find no basis for reversal. See Anderson-Tully Co. v. McDaniel, 571 F.3d 760, 762
(8th Cir.) (standard of review), cert. denied, 558 U.S. 1050 (2009). Accordingly, the
judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                         ______________________________




      1
       The Honorable Joseph F. Bataillon, United States District Judge for the
District of Nebraska.
