                    Appeal from United States District Court
                  for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis
                                  ____________

                           Submitted: September 4, 2015
                            Filed: September 10, 2015
                                  [Unpublished]
                                  ____________

Before SHEPHERD, BYE, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.
                           ____________

PER CURIAM.




                                          -2-
        Cheri Rodgers appeals the district court’s1 dismissal of her civil action. Upon
careful de novo review, see Yankton Sioux Tribe v. U.S. Dep’t of Health & Human
Servs., 533 F.3d 634, 639 (8th Cir. 2008), we conclude, for the reasons explained in
the district court’s thorough September 29, 2014 Memorandum and Order, that res
judicata bars Rodgers’s claims brought under federal law and the Missouri Human
Rights Act (MHRA), see Banks v. Int’l Union Elec., Elec., Technical, Salaried &
Mach. Workers, 390 F.3d 1049, 1052-53 (8th Cir. 2004). We further conclude that
the court was within its discretion to decline to exercise supplemental jurisdiction
over Rodgers’s state-law tort claims for intentional and negligent infliction of
emotional distress. See Johnson v. City of Shorewood, Minn., 360 F.3d 810, 819 (8th
Cir. 2004). As to Rodgers’s remaining arguments on appeal, the court did not abuse
its discretion in denying reconsideration, see United States v. Metro. St. Louis Sewer
Dist., 440 F.3d 930, 933 (8th Cir. 2006), and the newly raised complaint regarding
judicial bias fails, see Fletcher v. Conoco Pipe Line Co., 323 F.3d 661, 663-65 (8th
Cir. 2003).

        Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment, although we modify it to
clarify that dismissal of the state-law tort claims for intentional and negligent
infliction of emotional distress is without prejudice, see Labickas v. Ark. State Univ.,
78 F.3d 333, 335 (8th Cir. 1996) (per curiam), consistent with the district court’s
rulings in its Memorandum and Order. The pending motion is denied.
