Before FAGG, BOWMAN, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges.
                          _____________

PER CURIAM.

      Billie Calloway appeals the district court's dismissal of Calloway's time-barred
complaint asserting federal civil rights and state law claims. Having reviewed the
record and the parties' submissions, we are satisfied that the district court correctly
dismissed Calloway's complaint. We also conclude the district court's denial of
Calloway's motion for appointment of counsel was not an abuse of discretion. We thus
affirm the district court. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

      A true copy.

             Attest:

                     CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT.
