Leland W. Jacobs appeals the District Court’s 1 dismissal of his civil rights action, in which he claimed that defendants evicted him from his apartment for a discriminatory or retaliatory reason. Plaintiffs eviction occurred after defendants prevailed in their state court unlawful detain-er action against him. 2 After de novo review, see Lemonds v. St. Louis County, 222 F.3d 488, 492 (8th Cir. 2000), we conclude the District Court properly dismissed plaintiffs action, as it lacked subject matter jurisdiction under the Rooker- Feldman 3 doctrine. See Charchenko v. City of Stillwater, 47 F.3d 981, 983 (8th Cir. 1995) (Rooker-Feldman precludes federal claims if relief requested would effectively reverse state court decision or void its ruling).

*618 Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
