PER CURIAM.
       Jeffrey Olson appeals from the district court’s1 dismissal of his civil complaint
arising out of a child-custody proceeding. Upon de novo review of the record and the
parties’ submissions on appeal, see Springdale Educ. Ass’n v. Springdale Sch. Dist.,
133 F.3d 649, 651 (8th Cir. 1998) (Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6) dismissal); Lemonds v. St.
Louis County, 222 F.3d 488, 492 (8th Cir. 2000) (Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(1) dismissal),
we affirm for the reasons stated in the district court’s order. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. We
also deny appellant’s motion on appeal.

      A true copy.
