PER CURIAM.

       Gabriel Cassell appeals the district court’s1 judgment granting defendants’
motions to dismiss his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, and denying as moot his motion for
a preliminary injunction. Following careful review, we conclude that Cassell’s
complaint, which sought to overturn state-court rulings made in the course of five
years of child custody and support litigation, was properly dismissed. See Skit Int’l,
Ltd. v. DAC Tech. of Ark., Inc., 487 F.3d 1154, 1156-57 (8th Cir. 2007) (de novo
review of district court’s dismissal under Rooker-Feldman2 doctrine, which prohibits
lower federal courts from exercising appellate review of state-court judgments);
Fielder v. Credit Acceptance Corp., 188 F.3d 1031, 1035-36 (8th Cir. 1999) (generally
no fraud exception to Rooker-Feldman); see also Middlesex County Ethics Comm. v.
Garden State Bar Ass’n, 457 U.S. 423, 431-32 (1982) (no federal interference with
pending state judicial proceedings absent extraordinary circumstances).

      Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
