PER CURIAM.

Howard and Georgene Fletcher appeal the district court's2 entry of judgment for defendants Randy J. Zellmer and the Johnson, Anderson & Zellmer law firm in this legal malpractice action. The district court concluded that the appropriate state statute of limitations barred certain of appellants' causes of action, and that appellants had failed to create issues of material fact on the remaining causes of action. After carefully reviewing the record and the parties' briefs, we conclude that the district court's conclusions were correct. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
