Before BEAM, HEANEY, and BRIGHT, Circuit Judges. ___________ PER CURIAM.

Jerry Aamot appeals from the district court's1 order which compelled Aamot to transfer his entire interest in Roffe Container, Inc., (Roffe) to Roffe for $179,806.00, less the $40,000 in attorney fees and costs awarded Roffe; compelled Aamot to return all sums paid by Chedco Development, Inc., pursuant to a purported stock transfer agreement; and dismissed Aamot's remaining claims.

After carefully reviewing the record and the parties' submissions, we conclude that the district court did not err. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
