Before WOLLMAN, Chief Judge, MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, and BYE,
      Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.

      Ronald Miller, Jr., on behalf of himself and his minor child, Megan, appeals from
the district court’s1 dismissal without prejudice of his lawsuit. Having carefully
reviewed the record and appellants’ brief, we agree with the district court that it lacked


      1
        The Honorable Charles R. Wolle, United States District Judge for the Southern
District of Iowa.
subject matter jurisdiction over Miller’s claims concerning child visitation. See
Thompson v. Thompson, 484 U.S. 174, 187 (1988); Kahn v. Kahn, 21 F.3d 859, 861
(8th Cir. 1994). Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court. See 8th Cir.
R. 47B.
