Before McMILLIAN, FAGG, and HANSEN, Circuit Judges.
                           _____________

PER CURIAM.

       The Dalkon Shield Claimants Trust appeals the district court's denial of the
Trust's motions for judgment as a matter of law and a new trial. See Waitek v. Dalkon
Shield Claimants Trust, 934 F. Supp. 1068, 1100 (N.D. Iowa 1996). We review the
district court's rulings under well-established standards. Based on the record before us,
we find no error that would require reversal. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R.
47B.
