PER CURIAM.

     Freddie D. Freeman appeals the district court's1 dismissal of his
complaint alleging a due process violation in parole proceedings.             After
carefully reviewing the record, we conclude that the dismissal was not an
abuse of discretion.       Accordingly, we affirm.     See 8th Cir. R. 47A.
