No. 92-1130.
United States Court of Appeals,
Eighth Circuit.
Submitted: May 1, 1992.
Filed: May 7, 1992.
Before BOWMAN, MAGILL, and BEAM, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.
Leo M. Mullen, M.D., appeals from the district court's1 dismissal of this action against the United States and twenty other parties. Mullen sought "money damages and criminal prosecution," citing 28 U.S.C. § 1346, the jurisdictional statute for the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C. §§ 2671-80. Having reviewed the record, we conclude the district court correctly granted certain defendants' motions to dismiss under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b). These dismissals are with prejudice to a further action by Mullen. The court properly dismissed the complaint without prejudice as to the remaining defendants for failure to effectuate service within the applicable time period, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(j).
Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47A(a).
The Honorable Dean Whipple, United States District Judge for the Western District of Missouri
