Before WOLLMAN, BOWMAN, and GRUENDER, Circuit Judges.
                       ____________

PER CURIAM.

       Janice Henderson appeals the district court’s1 dismissal of her complaint
asserting various claims against her former employer, Cypress Media, Inc. The

      1
       The Honorable Ortrie D. Smith, United States District Judge for the Western
District of Missouri.
district court dismissed her complaint for failure to state a claim. Upon careful
review, we conclude that the district court did not err in dismissing Henderson’s
complaint, see Levy v. Ohl, 477 F.3d 988, 991 (8th Cir. 2007) (de novo review of
dismissal for failure to state claim), and we additionally conclude that the district
court did not abuse its discretion in denying her motion for appointment of counsel,
see Davis v. Scott, 94 F.3d 444, 447 (8th Cir. 1996) (trial court has broad discretion
to decide whether both plaintiff and court will benefit from appointment of counsel);
Rayes v. Johnson, 969 F.2d 700, 702 (8th Cir. 1992) (civil litigant has no
constitutional or statutory right to court-appointed attorney). We thus affirm. See 8th
Cir. R. 47B.
