PER CURIAM.

Donald H. Brancato appeals the district court's order dismissing Brancato's civil rights complaint against St. Louis City Circuit Judge Thomas C. Grady on the basis of judicial immunity. We have reviewed Brancato's complaint and conclude the district court's decision was clearly correct. See Mireles v. Waco, 502 U.S. 9 (1991) (per curiam); Myers v. Vogel, 960 F.2d 750 (8th Cir. 1992) (per curiam). Neither briefing by the parties nor an extended discussion on our part is warranted. We thus affirm the district court. See 8th Cir. R. 47A(a).
