PER CURIAM.

       Dawn E. Coary appeals the district court's order dismissing Coary's disability
discrimination complaint for failure to exhaust administrative remedies. Because we
agree with the district court's conclusion that it lacked subject matter jurisdiction, we
affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
