Before BYE, SMITH, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.
                           ____________
PER CURIAM.

       Charles Evans appeals the district court’s1 dismissal of his lawsuit against his
former employer. After careful review, we conclude that it was proper for the district
court to sanction Evans for willfully disregarding an order compelling discovery, and
that the court imposed an appropriate sanction by dismissing the action without
prejudice, after Evans had been warned of the possibility of dismissal. See Rodgers
v. Curators of Univ. of Missouri, 135 F.3d 1216, 1219, 1221-22 (8th Cir. 1998)
(finding of willful disregard of order is reviewed for clear error; selection of sanction
is reviewed for abuse of discretion; concluding that district court did not abuse its
discretion in dismissing action). We further conclude that the remaining issues raised
by Evans on appeal are meritless. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

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